Growing up in the 1960s, because my parents were in their twenties, I wasn't immediately exposed to the Rolling Stones or the Beatles or The Doors. The records I remember from my early childhood were the Four Freshmen, the Kingston Trio, Fats Domino, and Jose Feliciano.
My husband first remembers Jose Feliciano because he sang the theme song for the early '70s show "Chico and the Man," with Freddie Prinz and Jack Albertson. Loved that show, too, but I'd already been listening to him by that time.
One of our all time favorite holiday songs is Feliz Navidad. We play it every year while we're putting up the Christmas tree so we can get into the holiday spirit.
Here's Jose Feliciano in a live concert in Denmark in 1973 performing it:

My sister bought me a stuffed penguin that plays Feliz Navidad. Its beak and wings move along in time. To get it to play, you squeeze a foot. I love that song. I've been playing it every day :)
