Album Review: Rod Stewart - Merry Christmas, Baby

Yes, it's that time of year where carols and Christmas records have been playing for roughly a month and a half in supermarkets and those unlucky enough to get stuck out shopping for our loved ones for extended periods will start to notice several uninspired versions of the same song in one trip. Stewart's re-issue of Merry Christmas, Baby, is very much another version to add to that list. Every now and then a good Christmas album will crop up. Sorry Rod; despite your best smouldering gaze on the cover, this album failed to charm.
