Clapton got so giddy over his first-ever Christmas album that he drew the cover illustration of Santa himself! OK, his artwork may be amateur, but his bluesy spins on the classics are pro all the way and quite a delight: "White Christmas," "Away in a Manger," "Jingle Bells (In Memory of Avicii)," "Silent Night," "Merry Christmas Baby," "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and more (including some obscure holiday tunes and a new original, too). You can opt for the standard CD or LP, but available to us in very limited numbers (in fact, very few outlets will be carrying this at all), the limited deluxe-edition box is wrapped in red-and-white faux fur (like Santa’s hat) and inside are the new album on CD, a 7" picture flexi vinyl and a rubbery USB drive derived from Eric’s Santa sketch that doubles as an ornament and contains the album as hi-def WAV files, an interview, album art and bonus video content. An additional metal-alloy ornament rounds out this lavish presentation of Clapton’s full-length holiday debut! Extremely limited! Surfdog.
