Eric Clapton Happy Xmas

Here is another Eric Clapton Christmas song

by Paul Cashmere on December 18, 2018

Eric Clapton has released the must-hear Christmas album of 2018 he calls ‘Happy Xmas’.

“I had in my head that these holiday songs could be done with a slight blues tinge, and I started to figure out how to play the blues lines in between the vocals,” said Clapton, who co-produced “Happy Xmas” with longtime music producer Simon Climie. “I got it down and one of the most identifiable songs on the album, the one that became the foundational style, is ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas’.”

Here is another track from the album ‘Christmas in my Hometown’.
