Comments about SONY Bob Dylan - Christmas in the Heart:
The best thing about Bob Dylan's rendition of Christmas Carols and Songs is that he actually sounds like you'd think Santa Claus does! Every Christmas I always battle to find Christmas Carols to play in the background to complement the season, of course all you can find on the shelves are the latest pop stars doing their long winded "funky" version of Christmas songs and butchering the Christmas spirit! So good on Bob for providing an easy listening/ traditional and yet PERFECT Christmas soundtrack!

Comments about SONY Bob Dylan - Christmas in the Heart:
This album is Dylan doing traditional christmas songs in a manner that is generally very true to the original. While songs like 'Must Be Santa' work very well (and the video is a must see), generally Dylan's croaky voice doesn't suit these as well. For Dylan fans this is an interesting curio worth picking up if you can find it at a bargain price. Others should stick to the better known albums.

Comments about SONY Bob Dylan - Christmas in the Heart:
One of the weakest of Dylan's albums. Absolutely perfect if you are looking for a Christmas album (in which case it probably avoids some of the sickliness that might be expected), but only get this after getting almost all other Dylan albums (the unfairly maligned Selfportrait included).

Comments about SONY Bob Dylan - Christmas in the Heart:
Brilliant album. If your looking for a album that is unlike all the other Xmas albums this would be a great choice. A must for any Dylan fan. It has recieved some critizism mostly about dylans voice and song composure. Personaly his croaky voice seems to make the album more likeable for me.
