Details: Product DescriptionPaisley, BradAmazon.caA worthy addition to the country Christmas collection, this succinctly titled album combines respect for tradition with contemporary inspiration. « Winter Wonderland » features a Western swing arrangement and country references in the lyrics, « Away in a Manger » has a Cajun feel, and the « Jingle Bells » instrumental benefits from an injection of rockabilly twang (as does Paisley’s revival of Buck Owens’s « Santa Looked a Lot Like Daddy »). Among the original material that distinguishes the collection, « Penguin, James Penguin » is like « Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer » for the higher-tech generation, as Santa enlists a « secret-agent bird » to keep computerized tabs on who deserves what. « Born on Christmas Day » features a tape of a song Paisley wrote and initially recorded when he was 13, then segues into the artist today on the same tune. The album closes with a slam at political correctness on « Kung Pao Buckaroo Holiday, » with the Kung Pao Buckaroos (a.k.a. George Jones, Bill Anderson, and « Little » Jimmy Dickens) discovering that they get bleeped every time they mention « Chxxxxmas. »–Don McLeese
