Thirty-seven years and almost as many albums into his career, Bob Dylan is recording his first-ever Christmas album, reports The Bully! Pulpit News
The legendary singer/songwriter has apparently already recorded “Must Be Santa,” “Here Comes Santa Claus,” “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” and “O Little Town of Bethlehem.”
The story reports that the inclusion of “O Little Town” may “fuel speculation about Dylan’s religious beliefs that have swirled ever since he publicly converted to Christianity in 1979, recorded explicitly religious material on three subsequent albums and for a time refused to play his old songs. Religious references on subsequent recordings became less overt after 1981’s Shot of Love.”
