Product Description
The Brian Setzer Orchestra has established a new standard by which holiday albums are judged. They struck a major chord with audiences everywhere and catapulted the super-charged 18 piece Big Band into a Christmas franchise via their annual sold out holiday tour. This magnificent collection is a combination of the very best tracks from their two holiday releases, paired with two previously unreleased tracks plus two seasonal selections from his 2007 materpiece Wolfgang's Big Night Out.

 Can't stop rockin'... December 26, 2008
Not quite sure how you can get something that sounds like 40's Big Band/Swing/Jazz/60's Rock....but it works here! Couldn't stop "rockin'" from 1st note to last.
Great Album at a great price December 22, 2008
If you like big band / Swing Music, you will love this Christmas album at a price that can't be beat!
Setzer's Christmas Tunes Totally Rock! December 21, 2008

This is quite simply the best Christmas album out there. Our family has owned the other 2 Brian Setzer Christmas CD's, "Dig That Crazy Christmas" and "Boogie Woogie Christmas", and we listen to them non-stop during the holidays every year. This new release pretty much takes the best 20 songs and puts them all in one place at an insanely low price (especially for the MP3 version --I love AMAZON!). You can't go wrong with this one!!
Even the Grinch would rock out to this CD December 18, 2008

Let's face it, more than a few of us need a little Prozac during the holidays and this disk might just be the ticket. Brian Setzer does a very upbeat Christmas.
This is a compilation of his previous two Christmas CDs, so if you have them, you may not 'need' this one. I have one of the two, so I felt free to buy.
Favorites:
Jingle Bell Rock
Is that you, Santa Claus
To add to all of this, the CD is a very generous 20 tracks which is about twice what we are getting now in this age of iTunes and packaged disks.

A great party cd! November 26, 2008

I love this Christmas compilation. You get real value for your money here. Twenty songs on one cd! The band's version of The Nutcracker Suite is worth the price of the cd alone. Angels We Have Heard On High is another highlight which mixes a sort of surf guitar sound with fantastic horns and a choir on the chorus. Ann-Margret duets with Brian on Baby It's Cold Outside. There is also the never been released Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. For me, the only real disappointment is not including Hey Santa! on this compilation, but the songs that are included here prove that this fun, upbeat collection of Christmas songs are done as only Brian Setzer can do them. Dig that crazy Setzer Claus!
