Christmas Follies is the third album by the Salsoul Orchestra, comprised predominantly of Christmas songs.

The title of the album uses a version of Bookman distinguished by wonkily-swashed letter forms: Bookman Meola. The track listing is comparatively restrained, though – it's a standard version of Bookman.

No designer is credited. The photograph is by Joel Brodsky.

The design was also used for a single release, featuring the same typefaces.
