The music marketplace is bereft of holiday blues titles on vinyl and the biggest label in blues is filling the void. A Blues Christmas is a new vinyl compilation featuring the best of the Alligator's two holiday releases, 1992's The Alligator Records Christmas Collection and 2003's Genuine Houserockin' Christmas, which have combined sales of nearly 120,000 units. Neither title was ever released on vinyl. A Blues Christmas features an all-star cast of blues legends like Koko Taylor, Charlie Musselwhite, Shemekia Copeland, Marcia Ball, Elvin Bishop, Michael "Iron Man" Burks and many more. All tracks have been remastered to sound even better than the original releases.
