The most notable singer of the song was Gene Autry (The Singing Cowboy) back in 1949. Since the song was written in 1949, I assume he was the first person to record it, and it is this version that is heard many times during the Christmas season. But, as with many Christmas songs, this song has be sung by many others, including Perry Como and Burl Ives (from the TV special of the same name, where he sang "Holly Jolly Christmas, which was written by the same man that wrote "Rudolph")
"Here Comes Santa Claus" , "Frosty the Snowman" and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" .

Yes he did turn it down, as did Vaughn Monroe, Dinah Shore , Perry Como etc. Crosby thought the song too "juvenile" but it was included on his compilation, Time Life Treasures Of Christmas Vol 2 released in 1987. Perry Como recorded it later. Gene Autry (of French ancestry by the way) who reluctantly recorded Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer on 27th June 1949 at the urging of his wife, Ina May 1911-1980 told his TV Host Jimmy Carter in an interview in the mid 1980's "...............I made a record that I really wasn't sold on to start with. I didn't think it was going any place.......That was a big surprise to me because I didn't think it was that good a song". Gene's version sold over 25 million and continues to sing.
