The Christmas Classic You’ll Never Hear At The Mall

MUSIC Posted: December 24, 2018 6:15 am

It’s “Green Christmas,” by Stan Freberg. “When it was released by Capitol Records 60 years ago, the song caused a huge backlash from major advertisers, many of whom threatened to pull radio ads in protest. A young DJ at the time—one George Carlin—was almost fired for playing it on the air.” – The Atlantic
