Once Upon a Christmas is a collaborative studio album by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

The album's release was accompanied by a CBS television special, Kenny & Dolly: A Christmas to Remember.

The pair joined forces again on Rogers' 1983 single, "Islands in the Stream", which was a number one hit.

Kenny and I love singing together; I think the blend of our voices creates a real electricity that comes across on record.

Rogers and Parton promoted the album's release with a television special titled Kenny & Dolly: A Christmas to Remember, which aired December 2, 1984 on CBS.

The Bob Giraldi directed special featured performances of all ten songs from the album.

A fifth single, "I Believe in Santa Claus", was issued in the United States in November 1987[9] and also failed to chart.

In a positive review, Billboard said the album "shows signs of emerging as a seasonal blockbuster."

The review called Parton's compositions "lively" and said that the album is "devoid of schmaltz" and "sparkles with warmth.

In 1997, the album was reissued on the BMG Special Products label with an altered track listing.
