Truly the best alternative Christmas album - By: A. I. McCulloch, 09 Dec 2007 
I was thrilled to buy this CD from Amazon a few years ago, having worn out my copy on cassette. There are well-known standards (Kirsty & The Pogues' 'Fairytale') here mixed with lesser known gems, but everything is well worth the listen. Stina Nordenstam's ethereal voice is totally suited to Christmas songs, whilst Tom Waits' bass growl is perfect for his tale of a jailed hooker. Everyone who has heard this CD has said "Wow, that's great. Where did you track that down?"
Forget the rest, this truly is the best..... - By: , 25 Jan 2004 I've owned this album for nearly 8 years & every Christmas it gives me immense pleasure to listen to it. Creating more & more memories as time passes. There are no tacky 'wedding disco' type tracks only unusual, if not classic yuletide tunes. Everyone who hears me playing this, begs to know more. Amazon are diamondsin coming up with the goods at last. A real gem of a CD, previously very hard to get hold of.
Thank you!
