5.0 out of 5 stars This is Christmas (keg) party music, December 3, 2002

Whatever it is that brought you to read this review, take it as a sign. You should buy this CD! Maybe even buy two, because you are likely to spill eggnog on one of them. If you are a Mojo fan, this is arguably his best CD. If you are looking for something different in your holiday music, here it is. This recording sounds like Mojo and the Toadliquors got together for a few (too many) drinks to rehearse, and just ended up recording that. It's a great mix of R&B, traditional, and a few original songs. The singing and playing may be a little sloppy, and Mojo doesn't quite cut it singing "Everyday Will Be Like a Holiday", but the inspired piano playing by Wet Dawg more than makes up any musical short-comings.

Some highlights:
*The opening song, an irreverent-yet-sincere "Happy Birthday" to Jesus [].
*The rave-up of "Good King Wenceslas" (I forgot the words - let's just sing La La La).
*Every juvenile delinquent's favorite version of "Jingle Bells" (that's right, Batman smells).
*"We Three Kings" is reworked as a tale of drunken revelry. It turns out that "We Three Kings of Orient Are" nicely rhymes with both "drinking whiskey in a bar" and "throwing up in our dad's car". This song also includes a great Tom Waits impression.

If your line of good taste has not been crossed by the end of the disc, it probably will be on the final cut, "Twas the Night Before Christmas", when Mojo sings of committing unnatural acts with Blitzen. Do not play this for your mom.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimately offend your mother-in-law !!!!!!!!, December 29, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Horny Holidays (Audio CD)

A Christmas album for the masses whom despise Christmas albums!! Mojo's interpretations and "re-wordings" of classic Christmas tunes, as well as some original tunes leads to a FUNKY-FINE CHRISTMAS!!! A must for those so tired of "A Muppets Christmas" and Harry Connick Jr that they feel they should take their own life around Christmas time!!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Way Too Cool, December 22, 1999

What can you say about Mojo Nixon? A holiday without Mojo would be like a holiday without malt liquor, BBQ, and your favorite Elvis 8 track.

And FWIW, the backup singers make the album. Great stuff.
