#70 Grandaddy – Alan Parsons In A Winter Wonderland

If you like Christmas music then you’ll love the mp3hugger curated Christmas compilation ‘An Indiecater Christmas’, you can buy it here!

If ever a band deserved to record a seasonal standard then it’s the multi (not santa white I hasten to add) bearded Grandaddy. You see they can throw in all the slush that they want and it’ll still be as magical as fluffy snowflakes on a Christmas morn. Jason Lytle might look like he should have a wood axe permanently in his hand but thankfully he has decided to carve open our hearts by lofty harmonies instead. ‘Alan Parsons In A Winter Wonderland’ is as near a career highpoint as you’ll get. They may be having a laugh and the lines sometimes appear to be about a dozen words too long but the song is imbued with the essence of Christmas. In fact there is such an underlying beauty to this recording it could have the same effect on the mean spirited as three apparitions. ‘Alan Parsons In A Winter Wonderland’ is taken from the rare ‘It’s A Cool Cool Christmas’ compilation, which has left a powerful legacy to forever announce that winter’s here kids.
