Comment by W.B.lbl: I know "Wiki" said 1954, but the 'T' series bowed in 1955 per the Jan. 8, 1955 issue of Billboard. Take that what you will.

Comment by GimmeVinyl: I'm going to take a guess here that the jacket is pretty much the same as the US release.
Looking at the label, my educated guess is this LP was pressed in 1962, or later.

Comment by GimmeVinyl: Just bought a near mint copy today. No Duophonic crap.. Mono, just as it was intended.. recorded in 1956.
The two tracks that are missing from the original 1956 LP are "Sometimes I'm Happy" and "When I Get Too Old To Dream".

Comment by GimmeVinyl: These are all 1956 recordings... And done very nicely too!

I SAW THREE SHIPS--a close-to-the-heart carol among the sea-faring English, this song has been sung as long as men can remember, and is sung here by Nat and the full chorus, without orchestral backing.
