I Wanna Be Santa Claus

It probably doesn't come as much of a surprise that the good-natured Ringo Starr was the first Beatle to produce an official Christmas album. Ringing in the new millennium with I Wanna Be Santa Claus, the spirited 12-track collection is wonderfully rooted in Starr's famous sense of humor and his former group's signature sound. Available on vinyl for the first time, hear Ringo's charming takes on evergreens like "Winter Wonderland," "The Little Drummer Boy," "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "White Christmas"; compelling originals "Come On Christmas, Christmas Come On" and "I Wanna Be Santa Claus"; and of course the album stealing version of The Beatles' "Christmas Time Is Here Again."
