Closest to true new-wave sound and spirit is They Might Be Giants' Farfisa-driven \"Santa's Beard,\" but this eclectic mix's stretches generally succeed. Still, a couple of complaints: why a dreary \"Little Drummer Boy\" by Miracle Legion instead of the turbocharged one from Joan Jett's\nI Love Rock n' Roll? But it's churlish to complain about a record so well-meaning that it stacks up a blindingly good \"Rudolph\" by Los Lobos, a vintage single by Matthew Sweet's early Buzz of Delight, and \"Fairytale of New York\" by the Pogues and Kirsty MacColl--what a tearjerker.\n--Rickey Wright\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 081227255527\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0081227255527\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45931762155554,"sku":"7K-5F2Y-RQEZ","price":89.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51Iztz6ev6L.jpg?v=1783575701","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/just-cant-get-enough-new-wave-christmas","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
