The Singing Dogs   Jingle Bells   (RCA Victor, 1955)

From the decade that spawned more surreal Christmas records than any other, a genuine classic. The famous tune of the title was recorded using an entire choir of real-life "singing" - or, to be precise, barking - dogs. These were the days before samplers and fancy modern technology, so the studio process involved recording hundreds of hours of mutts, feeding them (the barks, not the dogs) through a variable frequency oscillator, then editing them together to fit a backing track.

Just because someone puts a lot of work into something
doesn't make it art... nor does it make it good.
