Originally popularized by Chuck Berry in 1958, some say this was the very first rock 'n' roll Christmas song. Since then, it's been covered by everybody from Bryan Adams and Billy Idol to Kelly Clarkson, Conan O'Brien, and The Muppets! Kirby Shaw kicks off his arrangement with that characteristic guitar lick and builds from there. The optional SoundPax allows you to assemble your own rock band, or use the live-instrument SoundTrax CD.
