Best Rock n' Roll Holiday Album

Posted about 5 years ago
So, to start off my blog and be timely as well, I'd like to ask: "What's your favourite rock n' roll Christmas / Holday album?" My vote is for Phil Spector's "A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector" because nothing says rock like the Wall of Sound and nothing takes the Christ out of Christmas quite like Phil Spector looking scary as hell in a Santa suit. He is, after all, a homicidal maniac / musical genius. To mention one other with my same opinion, Brian Wilson says that it's his favourite as well. It did not sell well when it came out, though, because it was released right after JFK was assassinated. Sure beats all the other Holiday schlock out there!

  1. etcvisitor says not only is he a homicidal maniac and a musical genius but isnt he also jewish... nothing takes the christ out of christmas like the jewish faith. so, what i want to know is, what the hell was he doing making a christmas album anyway... sounds like part of a conspiracy!!! and you know how i love conspiracies. oh, and for my pick for best rock n christmas... i'll take just about anything as long as you NEVER EVER play manheim steamroller.
