By the Stone Temple Pilots guy. Listen to it streaming here (if you dare):

The first song had me thinking that he just might pull it off, but then...it was hard to listen to "I'll Be Home For Christmas" without spitting out my eggnog in laughter. And it just gets worse and worse - we're talkin' train-wreck fascinating.
Won't knock out Dylan's xmas atrocity as 'worst holiday album ever by a rocker,' but Bob does now have some serious competition.

Dylan has a Christmas album?
This news alone helps me reaffirm my dedication to being a pop-culture hermit.

Oh yeah Kay, you gotta hear it - Dylan's voice, never a lovely thing under any circumstances, is completely shot. His off-key croak might have worked backed by some kinda primitive, rustic-y folk music, but the saccharine Andy Williams Xmas Special sounds featured here pitted against Bob's death rattle create a bewildering, hilarious chalk-and-cheese cocktail.
