    Other than Burl Ives, who was offered the job of singing 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' for the original movie?

    Question #25260. Asked by Red. (Dec 17 02 3:32 AM)


    Siskin

    		The original pre-production work on the show did not include Sam the Snowman played by Burl Ives. In fact Larry D.Mann had recorded all of the songs as Yukon Cornelius that Burl would later sing as Sam, such as 'Silver and Gold'

    Burl Ives was brought, in most likely by General Electric, as a star name to sell the show to the network.
