Bobby Womack - Dear Santa Claus (The Right Stuff 58815)


Dear Santa Claus

As Bobby said, he started writing this one when he was seven or eight years old. It was released for Christmas 1999 on this special 'Jukebox Only' vinyl pressing. I know it's a little syrupy and all of that but, hey, it's Christmas! By The Womack's own estimation, he is The Greatest Soul Singer in the World, and he just may be right. There have been some whispers recently about him facing some serious health issues, and I certainly hope that is not the case...

In any event, I'd like to take this opportunity to wish him (and you) the best Christmas ever!
