Released: November 2003, CD-Download

Once a year Christmas comes and once a year we will listen to the same boring Christmas tunes. The Viper Label decided that enough was enough and decided to delve into the music of the past. What was unearthed was a treasure trove of amazing Christmas songs dating from the 1920's to the 1950's most of which had never been heard, whether it was Blues, Rock 'n' Roll or otherwise. These songs have an irresistable charm and range from the bizarre (' Santa to the Moon ' by Sonny Cale), the amazing (' Hey Santa Claus ' by The Moonglows), to the plain crazy. (' Baby Sittin' Santa ' by Barry Richards)This is the first time such a collection has been gathered together for your festive enjoyment. This is the essential Christmas album - And about time too.
