The release of this CD marks the silver anniversary of that momentary lapse of sanity grown to ubiquitous proportions - the Christmas Jug Band. The irreverent crew of Dan Hicks, Austin DeLone (Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello), Tim Eschliman (Commander Cody, Etta James, Rhythmtown-Jive), Paul Rogers (Those Darn Accordions!), Jim Rothermel (Jess Colin Young, Van Morrison), Adam Gabriel (Hank Ballard & the Midnighters), Lance Dickerson (Commander Cody) and Blake Richardson (Bobby Hebb) deliver a dozen season-stopping classics led by the great Rogers classic already making a buzz, "Santa Lost a Ho". Also features founding member Nick Dewey & Paul Wenninger, as well as Norton Buffalo & others. Engineered by Fred Catero (Pointer Sisters, Santana, Barbra Streisand, Big Brother, etc.).
