Icebergradio issued the following report:

Hall & Oates recently came out with their first-ever Christmas album, featuring such traditional tunes as "The First Noel" and "Oh Holy Night." The duo also wrote two of their own seasonal tracks, called "Home For Christmas" and "No Child Should Ever Cry On Christmas." John Oates told us that he and Daryl Hall wanted to combine both old and new holiday songs: "There's certain Christmas classics that just seem to represent the spirit of Christmas and what people kind of expect on a Christmas album. And at the same time we want to do something that's a little different."

A portion of the proceeds from sales of Home For Christmas will go to Toys For Tots.

Hall & Oates recorded the material over several months this year in the Bahamas, upstate New York, London and Colorado. They also recorded a new version of "Jingle Bell Rock" for a promotional-only single.

Hall & Oates have a few concerts lined up in March.
