I have listened to the whole album and it isn't as bad as I expected, BUT it is a Christmas album and I would never buy one - I really dislike them.  It was released on 12th October, which seemed far too early and as soon as Christmas is over - after Christmas Day, it will be dead in the water!

It would have been better if MKs album and Clapton's dates were reversed - 12th October for MK and 16th November EC - makes more sense!   :)

Except the horrible "jingle bells", the rest are just ok, but boring as hell.

Yes, this wasn't a good album. Is Eric running out of ideas? With his amazing career, he doesn't have to prove anything, but an album like this is kind of sad.
