Like Old Sock and I Still Do before it, Happy Xmas relies on songs from other songwriters (he wrote only one tune, the slow-burning \"For Love on Xmas Day\") and cooks to a cozy groove that's grounded in the blues but also encompasses soul, reggae, rock, and a bit of vaudeville shuffle (\"Xmas in My Hometown\"). This homey atmosphere is certainly suited for the season, even if it rarely sounds like a typical holiday record. Chalk that up to Clapton studiously avoiding a reliance on shopworn carols. When he does play an overly familiar tune, he switches it up: he opens up the affair with a blues rendition of \"White Christmas,\" \"Silent Night\" is given a reggae bounce, \"Away in a Manger\" has a soulful underpinning, and he turns \"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas\" into a seduction. These clever interpretations are nestled alongside nice holiday chestnuts, turning this into a comforting Christmas listen. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedia Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: HOLIDAY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Type: 2xLP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/12\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Love Vinyl Records","offers":[{"title":"- HOLIDAY","offer_id":49251696378098,"sku":"0EJP25-N6BY-00","price":24.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/eric-clapton-happy-xmas_8MdEO.jpg?v=1779582836","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/happy-xmas-2lp-180g-color-vinyl-mint-m-mint-m","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
