The Alternative Yuletide Collection.

Of all the factors making the more cynical amongst us dread the oncoming of another festive season, the preponderance of the same dozen records spun endlessly across the airwaves and in department stores for months prior to the big day, is one of the most potent. But with a compilation as refreshing, thrilling and eclectic as this 'alternative yuletide collection' now available, with its delightful tunes actually complementing the event in question, the time has come to welcome in the season of goodwill while enjoying the likes of 'The Reindeer Boogie', 'North Pole Rock', 'Mambo Santa Mambo' or one of 53 other Christmas Crackers as presented on this 2 disc set.
