Today, it's JD McPherson offering up a pair of tracks free on Noisetrade in advance of the November 2 release of his highly anticipated Christmas album, "Socks". McPherson is mighty proud of this album and, judging by these two advance songs--"Hey Skinny Santa" and "Socks"--he should be. It's not just that he's completely captured the sound of an earlier era, but this is (to validate JD's own impressions) some of the finest lyrical work we've heard on a Christmas album in many a year. Just consider this one line from "Socks" as example:
It doesn't beep or buzz or bop or rattle in the box
Why'd you waste the paper on a lousy pair of socks
Hear the whole song and download "Socks" and "Hey Skinny Santa" by JD McPherson free at Noisetrade now and for a limited time (same goes for Rodney Crowell's Noisetrade tracks...limited time only). And read JD's thoughts on his Christmas record in an exclusive interview.
