Malibooz Yule - A Malibu Kind Of Christmas

Released on compact disc in 1992 by Iloki Records.

As the title suggests, Malibooz Yule is a Christmas album. This is the second official Malibooz album and, though more than a decade had passed, it carries on the great sense of fun and humor that was found in its predecessor Malibooz Rule!.

Although this album usually only comes off the shelf during the twelfth month of the year, I do enjoy it. Favorite tracks are "Santa Drives a Super Stock Dodge" (with its reference to Jan and Dean's "Little Old Lady from Pasadena), "And a Happy New Year," "A Quiet Little Christmas," "Christmastide," and "Carol of the Swells."
