Why This CD Matters
Alan Jackson’s first Christmas album brings a country honky-tonk feel to the holiday season, mixing original songs with familiar material. The title track has a rocking feel, while “The Angels Cried” is a duet with Alison Krauss and “If We Make It Through December” gives Merle Haggard’s song a country reading. “There’s A New Kid In Town” pairs Jackson with a previously recorded vocal by Keith Whitley, adding a distinctive duet to this 10-song set.
