Six Million Dollar Man "4 Exciting Christmas Adventures" (PR-8208, 1978)
No, really — this was green lit and released (“I’ve got it! We’ll have Steve Austin attempt to decode an alien message sent originally with the Star of Bethlehem!”). While all the stories are at least a little surreal, maybe the most noteworthy is “Elves’ Revolt”: unionized elves protest their working conditions under Santa Claus (they want a livable wage and better hours but he won’t even talk terms ’til the Christmas rush is over), and as a result they end up falling in with a terrorist planning to melt the polar ice caps (the fact that in 2006 the Six Million Dollar Man voice actor sounds more like George W Bush than Lee Majors probably raises the weirdness factor here). Not my LP rip, but a fairly clean one with only a few slight skips.

Hell yeah! Man your blog rocks!
I remember in the early 90’s when the 99centsOnly stores had piles of this album in shrink-wrap. I bought one!
I remember this..and i think I have it…I also have a couple of earlier ones as well.
Finally!
Someone has put two long separated Yuletide elements together – Steve Austin and the birth of Jesus!
Yeah, it’s like the happy ending to an old Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup commercial or something really.
Yeah! I’ve been looking for something like this for a long time…thanks!
