1961 was one of those transition years where the 50s rock and roll was in the past but The Beatles were yet to arrive.
One of the biggest charting acts from this period was Connie Francis and she had the only Christmas record to make the Top 40 that year with "Baby's First Christmas". I was the beginning of the end of her Top 40 career though making only number 30 which was her lowest charting Top 40 hit to this point. Even in her native America where she enjoyed huge chart success around this time it only made number 26.
The Christmas number one was "Moon River" by Danny Williams.
