The song "December Will Be Magic Again" also appeared on an EMI 
compilation CD called _It's Christmas!_, in addition to the 
sources previously mentioned.  
 
Early releases of _It's Christmas!_ featured the 'bongo' version
of DWBMA -- the only official (i.e., non bootleg) release of this
version that I'm aware of.  Apparently, EMI included this version
by mistake, as the bongo version was replaced with the single version 
on later pressings of the CD.  The earlier CD is now fairly hard to 
find, and I'm not aware of a surefire way of telling the two apart
without playing them.
