Travis Tritt is a rocker trapped in a country singers career, and nowhere is
that clearer than here on the rousing rock renditions of Winter Wonderland and
Silver Bells. Like Dwight Yoakhams five-star Christmas disc, Tritts album could
be played any time of year and the references to Christmas would merely be
footnotes. This is a tough, musically minded assortment of cool originals and
choice covers, whether its the homage to Buck Owens on the Buck classics Santa
Looked a Lot Like Daddy and All I Want for Christmas Dear Is You, or the
knockout vocal performance of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas done like a
50s rock & roll ballad. Tritt momentarily goes quiet on a touching version of O
Little Town of Bethlehem and I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. But even on
these two, Tritt is singing like the world depended on it. What a great record!
