Editorial Reviews
Dave Dudley, the King of Truck Driving Tunes, brings his rough-hewn, must-be-movin’-on approach to this set of Christmas songs. Christmas Truck Stop has the same feel that made “Six Days on the Road” a classic. The project sports a mix of traditional and original music that includes the song “Six Tons of Toys.”
This is the original version of the tune that was released in 1999 by country music’s Paul Brandt. All in all, Christmas Truck Stop brings together the familiar themes of country music with those of an American Christmas and then slams the hammer down. A high octane, diesel-driven must-have for the long-hauler in all of us.

Dave has assembled a nice variety of Chistmas favorites. If you enjoy listening to Dave's truck driving songs you will enjoy this CD as part of your Chritmas festivities as well as throughout the year.

This review is from: Christmas Truck Stop (Audio CD)
I'm really just a passing fan of both country music and Mr.D(Dave Dudley)but I have always enjoyed the guy-next-door and shoot-from-the-hip delivery of his music.His biggest hit"Six Days on the Road" has always been a fave of mine.He was singing about trucking long before CW McCall moved in in the 70s with "Convoy".
Born in Wisconsin in 1928 Dudley had his first brush with recording in 1959 with "Where there's a Will".In 1963 he recorded "Six Days..." on one label(which sold over a million) and moved over to Mercury that same year where he would re-record "Six Days.." and have success with other songs like "Truck Drivin Son of a Gun","Truckers Prayer" and "Anything leaving Town today".He left Mercury in the 70s but went on to record around 70 different albums in total in his career.His biggest days as far as hits went,passed by but he always remained a popular draw in concert.His last hurrah came after 9/11 when he recorded the patriotic "American Trucker".In December of 2003 we lost Mr D but his recording legacy carries on and this Christmas CD is a wonderful set to own.Unlike alot of country CDs this doesn't have the constant strain of steel guitars and fiddles in the background.It is just a nice straight forward CD of Christmas favourites and others done in that inimitable style only Mr D could render: Six Tons of Toys White Christmas Reverend Nicholas O Come All Ye Faithful All I Want for Christmas Is You for Me Can I Sing a Christmas Song for You O Christmas Tree I Wish You Were Here Jingle Bells Lonely Christmas Again Old Time Merry Christmas Silent Night This CD will definitely become a favourite of country and non country fans alike.Thanks Mr.D and I hope where you are all your roads are straight ones!

ALL DAVE DUDLEY MATERIALS,
By COKE "COKE" (NEBR. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Christmas Truck Stop (Audio CD)
I HAVE NEARLY A FULL DISCOGRAPHY ON DAVE DUDLEY FROM WAY BACK AND CAN SAY THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND ANY AND ALL MATERIALS BY HIM TO ANYONE WHO ENJOYS GOOD COUNTRY MUSIC AND COUNTRY CHRISTMAS MUSIC. HE IS A MAN WITH A VOCAL TALENT OF PAST AND PRESENT COUNTRY MUSIC.
HIS MATERIAL IS MORE LIKE A 10 AND IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY DAVE DUDLEY MATERIALS IN YOUR COLLECTION, GET SOME 'SOON', YOU "HAVE MISSED SOMETHING GREAT".
