"Very nice collection of Christmas classics from the King of Rock n Roll, ideal to have on when sitting by the log fire at December evenings" Reply
"Truly amazing how they can try so many different things on and still make it unequivocally their own. I think that's the hallmark of all the greats." Reply
"A solid debut - slightly above average overall. It's pretty consistent, but there are only a few "wow" moments.

"Incredible album, quality of songs and musicians is mind-blowing. I can now see why this album is number 4 in the best AOR albums ever recorded chart. In my opinion it's joint number one." Reply
"One thing about this album I think is often overlooked is how focused it is. Yes, it is atmospheric dub so it's mostly an aesthetic vibe people go for, but the feel for this album is incredibly specific that it easily invokes escapism.
