Nick Lowe – Quality Street: A Seasonal Selection For All The Family (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Nick Lowe spent decades as one of rock's sharpest craftsmen, producing Elvis Costello and the Pretenders while quietly building one of the most respected songwriting catalogs in British pop. By the time he made this record, he had long since settled into a mode of refined, unhurried cool, and that sensibility turns out to be a perfect fit for the holiday season, bringing the same dry wit and melodic grace he brought to "Cruel to Be Kind" and "What's So Funny 'Bout Peace, Love and Understanding."
Vinyl LP pressing. When Nick Lowe was approached by his record label about making a Christmas album, his reaction wasn't exactly one of comfort and joy. And the joys of Christmas infuse the dozen songs on Quality Street: A Seasonal Selection For All The Family. The album features originals and covers of seldom heard seasonal songs plus a few you may be slightly familiar with. Anyone who likes their Christmas soundtracks with plenty of heart and humor, and a sprinkle of understated charm, will enjoy Quality Street for the newly minted classic that it is. You might say it's the kind of record that gives vulgar, tawdry commercialism a good name.
