Our Take

Eric Clapton's "Happy Xmas" is like a festive fruitcake - a little bit nutty, a little bit sweet, and guaranteed to leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Known for his soulful guitar riffs and raspy vocals, Clapton puts his own spin on classic Christmas tunes, delivering a mix of heartwarming ballads and rollicking rock anthems.

The album kicks off with a bluesy rendition of "White Christmas," where Clapton's signature guitar licks add a touch of elegance to the holiday classic. Songs like "Away in a Manger" and "Silent Night" showcase Clapton's softer side, with his emotive vocals shining through.

But it's tracks like "Christmas Tears" and "Lonesome Christmas" where Clapton truly shines, blending his bluesy roots with the spirit of the season. The result is a musical cocktail that will have you reaching for the mulled wine and mince pies.

With its mix of traditional carols and Clapton's unique take on festive favourites, "Happy Xmas" is a must-listen for fans of classic rock and Christmas music alike. So grab a glass of eggnog, cozy up by the fire, and let Eric Clapton's soulful sounds bring some holiday cheer to your ears. Cheers to a rockin' Christmas!
