Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded entirely solo during the highly experimental 'McCartney II' sessions, this ubiquitous holiday staple relies heavily on the bouncy, futuristic tones of the Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 synthesizer. The infectiously simple melody and distinctly synthetic production provided a highly modern, quirky addition to the traditional festive canon.
