Includes Everything Is Cool; All the Best; Silent Night All Day Long; Silver Bells; I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus; Christmas in Prison , and more.
Featuring a crack backup band that includes Spooner Oldham, Benmont Tench, and Chris Etheridge, John Prine Christmas is positively electric and rocking coming from a guy known for his rustic charm. Prine recorded this eight-song EP with a vague Christmas theme as a stopgap between his "comeback" album, 1991's The Missing Years and 1995's Lost Dogs and Mixed Blessings. The live cuts (including collaboration with the Cowboy Junkies on "If I Were the Woman and You Were the Man") are charged with Prine's good stage sense and relaxed delivery. All exhibit his excellent wordplay and great musical sense. --Rob O'Connor
