The Perry Como Christmas Album is Perry Como's 15th RCA Victor 12" long-play album.

Como is accompanied on the album by the Ray Charles Singers and an orchestra arranged and conducted by Nick Perito. On two songs, "The Little Drummer Boy" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", boy choristers from the Little Church Around the Corner and from Saint Thomas Church (Manhattan) also participated.

Como also recorded a rendition of the Wihla Hutson-Alfred Burt composition "Some Children See Him" during the sessions, but this was omitted from the finished album, presumably due to space limitations. The track remained unreleased until its inclusion on a 1999 CD compilation of Como Christmas recordings.
