From Wikipedia:

Each year from 1963 to 1969, the Beatles had recorded a short Christmas message for their fans, composed of carols, skits, jokes, and thanks to the loyal “Beatle People”. Each recording was pressed onto a 7″ flexi disc and mailed free to the British members of the Fan Club. In 1970, in the wake of the band’s break-up, Apple released the compilation of all seven.

From me:

Tis a bit of fun listening to the Beatles carry on in that way of theirs, and it must have been amazing to receive the disks each year at the time. Mostly though, its pretty forgettable as its just the band cracking wise and goofing around.
