Grade: C
Annie Lennox, superstar vocalist and member of the popular ’80s duo Eurythmics, takes a break from her off-the-wall music and videos to spread some folky holiday cheer with her new release, “A Christmas Cornucopia.” The album definitely isn’t meant for nights of crazy Christmas party times, but it’ll do the trick for the background sound to a family event or a low-key soiree with a 50+ crowd. Traditional tunes like “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” and “The Holly and the Ivy” make “A Christmas Cornucopia” the perfect stocking-stuffer for the grandparents.
