The premise
Here’s the bit.
A mock record advertisement offers Christmas standards performed by the soul-singing duo Cephus and Reesie. Their vocal flourishes and interruptions turn Deck the Halls into a 24-minute performance and Silent Night into a 49-minute one. An eight-CD version of The Twelve Days of Christmas substitutes a feast of foods for the familiar gifts, while the singers struggle to get through the count. The sales pitch promises enough music to last for years after a single play.

Highly quotable.
It's a holiday album you'll enjoy for years to come, and you'll only have to play it once.
