Wrapped in Red – Kelly Clarkson (Sony Music) Rs. 399/-

This is the termed as the biggest album this season which debuted at #3 on the Top 100 Charts.  Clarkson, first of all is the only title holder of the first ever American Idol to have released a Christmas album. That should be some achievement we must say, though her pop career is also doing pretty well, her Christmas album has a bunch of traditional tracks and a few original compositions as well.

The title track Wrapped in Red is a heartwarming piece and is a definite replay. Her take on the traditional Silent Night is just the way it should be, though she is accompanied by guest’s vocalists Trisha Yearwood and Reba McIntyre.

The other highlights would definitely be Underneath the tree, the pulsating Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas with its fab climax, and Run Run Rudolph a pretty different take on the usual standard we have come to hear always. Lastly don’t miss her version of Blue Christmas which is really cool and easy on the ears and Baby, It's Cold Outside featuring Ronnie Dunn.

A good mix of the solemn and the fun loving tracks all rolled into one neat album.

Rating: ****
