Christmas comes but once a year, but an Ace Christmas record comes but once in a lifetime. Indeed, in its 30 years of existence, this is the very first festive release.
There are very few other Christmas CDs catering for the R&B fan and certainly none as varied as this one. It is rich, varied and full of ho ho ho with a side of misery, so get it while stocks last.
9 tracks are new to CD, while 3 are previously unissued in any form.
At mid-price, this is a perfect stocking-filler for every R&B and blues fan.
