Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer piano tab by Johnny Marks

The story of Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer was written as a promotional gift in the form of a coloring book for Montgomery Ward department store customers. The writer of the story had a brother who transformed it into a song. Gene Autry made the first recording of Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The song sold over two million copies and went to #1 on the Billboard’s singles chart in 1950.
