Well - it only took us 6 years to come up with the successor to the first volume of Holiday Tunes but it was well worth the wait. This second volume includes new tracks from Michael Stanley, Michael Sembello, Jake Holmes, Ben Arnold, The Buckinghams, James Cain and more, all forming one wonderful collection of tunes. From rockers to subtle and emotional holiday ballads, It's About Christmas Vol II will become one of those Xmas records you'll always bring out every season.
An interesting collection featuring some name performers--The Buckinghams ("Kind Of A Drag"), Michael Sembello ("Maniac"), Michael Stanley (Michael Stanley Band), David Hoffman (The Ray Charles Band), B.E. Taylor, Barbara Montgomery, James Cain, etc. This comes from the "It's About Music" folks, who previously issued Volume 1 in 2004. That one contained a personal favorite of mine, "Our Own Place and Time" by Grey Eye Glances, as well as the underground classic "Hanukkah and Christmas Hand in Hand" by Huffamoose.
Besides. It's got an orange cover. You have to respect that (OK, my humor's very dry. I can't really do much about that).
