KWKH Christmas Classic of the Day Dec. 3-Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, Gene Autry

Each day in December, until and including Christmas Day, I'll have a different Christmas Classic Song for you to enjoy!

Although his signature song was "Back in the Saddle Again," Autry is best known today for his Christmas holiday songs, "Here Comes Santa Claus" (which he wrote), "Frosty the Snowman," and his biggest hit, "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer."

Gene Autry, was an American performer who gained fame as The Singing Cowboy on the radio, in movies and on television for more than three decades beginning in the 1930s.

Autry was also owner of the Los Angeles/California Angels Major League Baseball team from 1961 to 1997, a television station and several radio stations in Southern California.

He is a member of both the Country Music and Nashville Songwriters halls of fame, and is the only person to be awarded stars in all five categories (Film, Television, Music, Radio, and Live Performance) on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Most recently, he became a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY
