Have Yourself a Rockin', Swingin' Christmas, Kid Royale & The Lucky Stiffs (Liberation Hall)

I received a number of pointers to this telling me it was a 2020 release, and since I never heard of these guys before this I grabbed it. Turns out it's a reissue of a 2005 album with a couple extra songs, so I'll file this under the 2000s with the site's sorting tools. Nevertheless, if you dig some rockabilly swing, this collection of 17 familiar songs, mostly mid-20th century favorites and a few older classics, will get the dance floor jumping. Fans of big-band jazz will note a number of cues from their favorite songs in that genre, but there's plenty of rock 'n roll in all these tunes too, their version of "Jingle Bells" being a notable example, along with more uptempo takes on "White Christmas," "Silver Bells," "I'll Be Home For Christmas" and "Silent Night." If you haven't encountered this before, now's as good a time as any.
