DVD: Cash Christmas Specials 1976/77, For retail (Shout Factory)
The first of these festive specials comes from the Man in Black's Tennessee homestead.
With guests including Tony Orlando, Roy Clark and Merle Travis, the emphasis is on down-home country spirit. The second, from 1977, is filmed at Nashville's Grand Ole Opry, which means it loses a bit of that logs-on-the-fire homeliness, but guests include Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Roy Orbison, the production is slick – and it sounds great.
