Various Artists Blues Christmas (CD)

(Putumayo) 10 tracks - digipack

Christmas nostalgia in a different way!

Christmas in the blues dives between New Orleans, Dallas and L.A. - a celebration of a different kind, but no less cultivated!

For many, Christmas is the festival of love, lights and presents.
But the winter days at the end of the year also evoke melancholy and nostalgic feelings for many when they have to spend the holiday alone or far away from their loved ones.
The blues is therefore related to this Christmassy mood: In it, too, joy and sorrow live side by side, comfort next to despair, darkness next to spiritual glow.
Putumayo sends a ray of light into the December darkness with ten Christmas songs.
