AMG Review of Come on Christmas

Thom Owens
All Music Guide

Dwight Yoakam's Come on Christmas is a rollicking set of rocking holiday classics that is ironically highlighted by the title track, a haunting original that is one of Yoakam's best songs of the late '90s. The remainder of the album is comprised of high-spirited, entertaining country-rockers that may not add anything new to Yoakam's catalog, but they nevertheless make the record an enjoyable holiday album.
