when i was a little girl, my gramma had this story on record. i would listen to it every day in december cuz it seemed to make christmas more christmasy. this cd goes along exactly like the cartoon that came on tv at christmastime every year when i was a kid. it tells the story of how alvin gives his harmonica away to a very sick little boy so maybe he'll get better. when alvin finds out that he has to play said harmonica at carnegie hall he devises many different ways to make money to buy a new one. in the end everything works out, he gets a special present at the mall and is surprised at carnegie hall by a duet with a special guest. yr whole family will love this cd even if they've never heard of the chipmunks. to me, it just isn't christmas without this cd. i recommend it to anyone who grew up with the chipmunks or who's just now discovering who they are. it's a great cd that yr family will enjoy for many christmases to come.

My daughters began listening to the Chipmunks when they were little girls. They are now 20 and we still consider that the official start of the Christmas holiday is when we watch or listen to Chipmunk Christmas.

The CD was exactly as described and the entire album played perfectly without any problems. The CD arrived one day prior to the estimated delivery date.

I, like a lot of you, grew up listening to 'A Chipmunk Christmas' every holiday season. The audio cassette we had in my household is now long gone, and I went looking for a copy on CD. I could not find it. I didn't just want the songs, I wanted the whole story narrated by Santa Claus. Well, I stumbled upon the 25th Anniversary edition of 'A Chipmunk Christmas' on DVD, and low and behold included in the case is a copy of 'A Chipmunk Christmas'! I ordered it immediately and was pleasantly surprised to find that THE CD INCLUDED IS INDEED THE ORIGINAL 'A CHIPMUNK CHRISTMAS'! So, if you want to only spend a few bucks, go and order the 25th Anniversary edition of 'A Chipmunk Christmas' DVD (which is available right here on Amazon). Don't let someone try to charge you >$100 for this CD!

Alvin and the Chipmunks - A Chipmunk Christmas (25th Anniversary Special Collector's Edition)

I just love this recording, it brings back many good memories for me and yes it's the Chipmunk Christmas album from the 80's you remember. With Santa tell the chipmunk story with chipmunk music in it too. i wish it was reissued you listening RCA/BMG/Sony! this classic album needs to be reissued for sure for next Christmas. Oh and next time Please included the storybook art in it like the 1981 RCA Album had.

Highly Recommended Recording.

And a Merry Christmas to everyone. :)

Now i say that this cd is great! I love every track they made and i know my nephew will love this cd! Now i'm just typing this right now because the people who are selling this cd had just jack the price up! I bet this cd is selling fast all across the globe. And they don't even make this cd no more! And now they only selling this for $199.00? AWW COME ON NOW! THATS CRAZY! IT'S REDICOLOUS! But i still love this cd! And it is a good thing that i have order it before they do. Thanks Amazon!

ASNELLES-SUR-MER, France - Entertainer Alvin Chipmunk released a statement to the French press today indicating that he still strongly desires a hula hoop. In the past, Chipmunk has denied the statement by former manager, Dave David, that he was supplied a hula hoop in 1967 after demanding one in the form of a song, "The Chipmunk Song," which became a popular hit with children and teenagers.

Relations between Chipmunk and David became strained in the early 1970s after a bitter accounting dispute that could not account for the purchase of a hula hoop. The dispute involved an estimated $130,000 in litigation, and ultimately resulted in David's dismissal as manager of the Chipmunk band. In the 1980s, the situation worsened when bandmates Simon and Theodore Chipmunk (no relation) left the group to pursue solo interests. Fans clamored for a Chipmunks reunion until 1996, when Simon Chipmunk was found dead in a Las Vegas hotel due to a cocaine overdose. Controversy ensued when Alvin reunited with Theodore to record a song with a vault recording of Simon in 2002 for a single song recorded for Space Jams 3, an animated film. The song was, however, a critical failure and financial disappointment, rising to only #113 on the Adult Contemporary charts. In 2003, Chipmunk relocated to France and has refused all contact from fans or the press.

In a statement on his web-blog, Theodore Chipmunk stated, "I am sorry to see that Alvin still wants a hula hoop. I sincerely wish that the Chipmunks, as a group, could have moved past the whole issue. I am reasonably certain that Alvin received a hula hoop in 1967 as Mr. Davis claims, but those years are rather hazy. Regardless, I wish both Alvin and Dave all the best."

Dave Davis could not be reached for comment.
