How is a honky-tonk Christmas different than a regular Christmas? Well, the predominant color is blue, rather than the more traditional red and green, and the stockings aren't filled exactly the way they were when you were a little one. But when Alan Jackson sings the songs of a honky-tonk holiday, the spirit is as infectious as can be, whether he's exploring the secular side of the holiday (as on a moving rendition of Merle Haggard's "If We Make it Through December") or delving into the spiritual (as on his duet with Alison Krauss, "The Angels Cried"). The Chipmunks--Alan's special guests on the silly "Santa's Gonna Come in a Pickup Truck"--are a little out of place, but it's a little too Grinch-like to dwell on that one flaw. --David Sprague

 Not a fan of honky tonk music September 8, 2008
Whozis (Kentucky)
I like Alan Jackson's voice, but I am not a fan of "honky tonk" music. I bought this CD for the song, "The Angels Cried", because it is beautiful duet with Alison Krauss; I also like "Holly Jolly christmas", because I like that old standard (remember Burl Ives?); and "If We Make It Through December", not that I like it that well, but I got used to hearing Merle Haggard sing it years ago. "Santa's Gonna Come In A Pickup Truck" is a cute Alvin & the Chipmunks project, but not my style; "A New Kid In Town" is easy on the ears, but not particularly endearing. If you love Alan Jackson, you may be totally satisfied with this CD.

It's a fun Christmas CD. If you're looking for something light this is the CD because it's not the traditional Christmas music. I love the traditional songs but this is a fun to listen to at a party.
