...boyishly risque Deck the Halls: "Nothing could be gayer, than to one-horse-open-sleigh her." Hound (dog) has as much rock, and more down-to-earthiness than Mr. Presley's. Soloist Bill Gurton captures the true flavor of America's adolescent subculture, though the record does not convey his physical talents...

Persistently understated and overbred, A Distant Drum belongs to the Forest Lawn of American writing where the cosmetician's art skillfully mimics but cannot summon life...
