Artist: Robin Bullock
Album Title: A Guitar for Christmas
Genre/Style: Instrumental
Release Year: 2004
Robin Bullock is an impressive guitar player, and his album A Guitar for Christmas delivers exactly what it promises: Christmas music played on the guitar. I’m not sure if it’s accurate to say the songs are “acoustic” — there’s definitely some reverb — but no one’s going to confuse this with Jimi Hendrix.
As for the songs themselves, they’re perfectly pleasant. But as much as I like albums like this, they usually turn into background noise. Bullock doesn’t help that little mind trap any by filling the album with medleys, making the songs even less distinct.
Rating: 




It’s good enough to recommend, but not good enough to insist upon.
