Hot off the back of his album Classic, Joe is set to release a Christmas album, suitably titled Classic Christmas. Until it’s release though, we’ve having out appetite wetted with the release of Last Christmas.

This little offering brings three of the tracks set for the album a few weeks early. Starting with a cover of the Wham classic, Last Christmas Joe shows that, whilst he embraced the classical side of things, he’s still got pop in his heart. Then to mix it up we’ve given Adeste Fideles (or if you don’t speak Latin it’s O Come All Ye Faithful) in all it’s classical glory. And to top it off he finishes that well known Christmas hymn, Silent Night.

As a taster as to what to come it a nice little sample. Plus with Joe now touring the UK in support of his album Classic, no doubt as he gets closer to the Christmas period that he’ll be performing these. Only thing we have to complain about is the release date…Start of November?? Please!

Rating: 4/5
