Amazon.com Jerry Jeff Walker's got the right idea about Christmas music. As he writes in his fun and memorable liner notes, "When we finally decided it was time to do a Christmas album, we had two thoughts in mind: it should be fun, and it should have sleigh bells!" Walker's always had the corner on a peculiar brand of country-rock pathos that cuts right to listeners' pleasure centers. Maybe it's his no-Nashville-nonsense attitude or his Everyman voice (thin and fragile enough in its satisfying imperfection, but effective enough to make you want to sing along). Whatever the reason, Walker delivers a fairly pleasant down-home mixture of songs arranged with old-fashioned country trappings and few gaudy embellishments. What's more, when was the last time you heard the "Twelve Days of Christmas" retooled to reflect a cowboy's wish list (two pairs of boots, dancin' ladies, prancin' horses, buckin' bulls, cowboy shirts, and five cans of beans)? Almost makes a guy want to move to Texas. --Martin Keller Product description Title: Christmas Gonzo Style Label: Rykodisc Format: CD Country: US Released: 1994 Genre: Folk, World, & Country Style: Country, Holiday 1 I'll Be Home For Christmas 2:43 2 I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas 3:58 3 Santa Claus Is Coming To Town 2:31 4 The Christmas Song (Chestnut Roasting) 3:19 5 Here Comes Santa Claus/ Up On The Housetop (Medley) 3:43 6 Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer 2:36 7 Jingle Bells 2:38 8 Walking In A Winter Wonderland 2:12 9 Frosty The Snowman 2:03 10 Jingle Bell Rock 2:18 11 The Twelve Days Of Christmas 3:47 12 We Wish You A Merry Christmas 1:14 Christmas Classics Country-style from Jerry Jeff.
