Brad Paisley's take on the holiday LP is tender, sentimental, and loaded with killer guitar work. The country star restlessly plucks away at his six-string on the longing "I'll Be Home for Christmas" before romping through the old Buck Owens tune "Santa Looked a Lot Like Daddy," giddily shredding some licks as he sings. "364 Days to Go" even finds the singer/guitarist penning a Christmas classic of his own; he reflects on the holiday and eagerly looks ahead to next December.
