Grandaddy - Alan Parsons In A Winter Wonderland
I posted this a whole 5 years ago so figured it deserved a second airing given its redemptive powers at this time of year. Of course it made complete sense that power poppeteers Grandaddy record a Christmas song but who could have guessed that they’d make awkwardly long, imperfectly sown lyrics sound so ridiculously cute (don’t answer me)? ‘Alan Parsons In A Winter Wonderland’ appeared on one of the best contemporary festive collections called ‘It’s A Cool, Cool Christmas’ which fetches quite the pretty penny on ebay these days. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll wish they reformed all within the space of the quickest 3 minutes ever. Lytle rarely sounded this large. KD
