LRB vocalist Wayne Nelson (who joined the band in 1981 and was lead singer on the top 10 hit "Night Owls") is featured on many cuts here, and the new original "We Call It Christmas" is excellent. Also a great rock version of Neil Diamond's "You Make It Feel Like Christmas", which no one ever covers. Several enjoyable and surprising choices, such as Do They Know It's Christmas, and Celebrate Me Home.

You don't hear any new Little River Band music on the radio, but the 2000s version of the group has succeeded with this holiday release. Check out the samples, if you don't believe me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Little River Band Masterpiece, December 3, 2008

Finally, Little River Band has put out a Christmas CD. Actually I was lucky to purchase this last year but now it's available in quantities almost everywhere thanks to a new distribution deal. It contains everything you expect from the finest band on the planet. Perfect, tight harmonies and brilliant musicianship. This CD contains mostly non-traditional Xmas songs done in their own unique style. One exception is Stephen Housden's from-the-heart instrumental guitar version of Silent Night and another, my favorite, is the band's original The Season of Love creatively penned by Greg Hind and Billy Thomas. Wayne Nelson and Greg Hind continue to deliver striking heart-felt emotion in their lead vocals. As hard as it is to imagine, they seem to get better with age. Also notable are Chris Marion's keyboard work and Rich Herring's guitar leads and of course the production and arrangements are top notch as usual. I highly recommend this CD to anyone with high musical standards. You won't be disappointed.
