AUDIO DAILY DOUBLE: Will you buy Bob Dylan's new album of Christmas standards? What if I told you proceeds go to Feeding America?

(they do)

Hear clips of many of the songs and a review at Fresh Air: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=114204279&ps=cprs

I love Dylan, but this album is awful. I'd rather hear the muppets sing christmas music. So, no, I won't buy it.
Asker's Rating:
• I've listened to several of the cuts, and I alternately laughed and cringed. When I explained to one of my kids that he is one of the most important songwriters, but that he doesn't have the best voice, he tried to defend Dylan at first; after hemming and hawing, he reluctantly agreed (but said that songwriting is more important).

I'm a Dylan fan, too, so I'm with you, emily.

Thanks to all for your answers!

I would consider it. I've been a fan Dylan for years.

I would buy it. My stepdad loves Bob Dylan so not only would I contribute to a good cause but he would get something he enjoys :)

No - I like Bob, but Christmas albums are almost universally bad, especially artists who try to put their own spin on the classics. I would prefer to send a donation directly rather than have 25 cents of my purchase price go to charity.
