The Mavericks - Christmas Time Is Coming Around Again

Review by Keme smith

The Mavericks have once again brought their unique blend of country, rock, and Latin music to the holiday season with their latest album, Christmas Time Is Coming Around Again. The album features 10 tracks, including classic Christmas songs like "Santa Claus Is Back in Town" and "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)," as well as original compositions like "Christmas for Me (Is You)" and the title track.

The band's signature sound is present throughout the album, with Raul Malo's smooth vocals and the band's tight instrumentation creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The arrangements are tasteful and varied, with some songs featuring lush orchestration while others are stripped down to just acoustic guitar and vocals.

There are some standout tracks on the album, such as the upbeat "Santa Wants to Take You for a Ride" and the soulful "Christmas Time (Is Coming 'Round Again)." The album also includes a Spanish-language version of "Feliz Navidad," which showcases the band's Latin influences.
