The Monkees / Unwrap You At Christmas
Check out this video to The Monkees new single ‘Unwrap You At Christmas’. This song was penned by XTC‘s Andy Partridge and features on the recent Christmas album The Monkees Christmas Party.

The new album features vocals from all three surviving members of the band and a couple of old recordings by Davy Jones. Unwrap You At Christmas is unashamedly old-school and in an alternate timeline where ‘the charts’ still meant something, it would be great to imagine this getting to number one.
