Synopsis

Album Description

The eloquent lyricism and dynamic virtuosity of Jerry Douglas, hailed by the New York Times as "the dobro's matchless contemporary master", is ideally suited to the creation of an Americana Christmas classic. And that's exactly what Jerry has produced: a spirited group of carols, traditional folk tunes, and modern seasonal songs. With a guest vocal by Grammy-nominated Maura O'Connell, "Jerry Christmas" gets that warm, down-home holiday feeling just right from the first note to the last.

CD Reviews

Jerry Christmas is jolly good.

John Mazur | Victoria, Australia | 11/17/2009

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I am not a great fan of recorded Christmas music, but I make an exception with this CD.

This would have to very rare product indeed: Christmas Music performed by one the best Acoustic Lap Steel artists.

Most of the CD is instrumental with a couple of vocal tracks to break the songs up a little.

I've bought everything Jerry Douglas has released and I'm not balking at this one.

Lovely, tasteful playing, with a bit of playful mirth on one track. I'll let you work out which.

If you like music with a different slant (pun intended) you won't be disappointed.
