Amazon.co.uk Review
It's a long way from Jacksonville, Florida, to the North Pole, but first generation Southern rockers Lynyrd Skynyrd put antifreeze in the old touring van and set a course for Santa's workshop with this seasonal outing. The band, which now consists of three founders and a handful of later recruits, mix Yule warhorses ("Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer", "Greensleeves") and more recent fare ("Santa Claus Wants Some Lovin'", "Run Run Rudolph", Eddie C. Campbell's customised-for-Christmas take on "Messin' With The Kid") with a smattering of originals. Guests Charlie Daniels and .38 Special check in with one song apiece, giving the whole project a kind of TV variety-show feel--that is, if you can picture a bearded Perry Como with a stack of Marshall amps at his back. --Steven Stolder

Good music, pointless CD November 11, 2000
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Let's get this clear. I LOVE Skynyrd, have all their albums, rate One More From The Road in my all-time top 3, saw them the last time they played London in 97. I also think their musicians are superb, and that the band has evolved with the addition of people like Rickie Medlocke and Hughie Thomasson. But I am baffled as to why they brought out this CD - it's a seasonal recording which has excellent renditions of Christmas classics, but which will be boring and pointless come January. Was it for the money? Or did the guys do it for a joke? I'd much rather they went into the studio and used their time and resource producing something which might have relevance in 3 months - just consider that I'm still playing OMFTR nearly a quarter century after it came out. So this is for real diehard fans only, people who would probably but anything produced by Skynyrd. I can't help thinking what Ronnie would have made of all this...
