Should be 1000 x better
Nov 25 2003
Format:Audio CD
So many talented artists & songs to pick from, so why doesn't this, Alligator's major Christmas showcase, blow me away? I don't like over produced tunes, but much of this is way under produced. If you're looking for a CD that you'll grow more fond of through each passing season, as I was, look elsewhere. Mind you, some of it might grow on you, as it has on me, and granted mine is just one opinion, but I sure don't hear any future classics on here... even though I should be able to, and from a mile away!

If you like the blues, this is the Christmas album for you!
Dec 1 1998
Format:Audio CD
This compendium of holiday tunes performed by various artists in the Alligator Records stable has become one of my favorite Christmas albums. Featuring performers like the fabulous Koko Taylor, Elvin Bishop, and Saffire, it provides a get-down alternative to the saccharine fare being offered up by so many labels. Without exception, the cuts are distillations of each artist's style - complete with humorous double entendres and top-notch production. Get it -- if only to save yourself from one more wimpy rendition of The Little Drummer Boy!

Fablueous!!!
Dec 11 2009
I love Christmas and one of the most exciting parts is while we decorate the tree (first weekend in Dec) we always have some bubbly and break out the CD's ....this is ALWAYS the first! If you love the blues...you will love this CD. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Listening to it right now in fact!

Solid collection of holiday themed blues
Jan 22 2009
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
These songs are not throw-aways but a great collection of electric originals that really make the season bright. Good variety and mix of tempos. If you like blues I would be surprised if you are disappointed with this collection.
Listmania!
