Really hard to put this up against Chuck, Keith, Jon Bon, and about a dozen others. But you know what? I think this is the best version out there - you have to hit the groove just right and Dave does. Of course Chuck wrote it and has done several fabulous versions - so even if we call it a tie - doesn't that make Dave the winner?
@Adrian68ification With all respect to Dave and Mickey Gee (check out that little jam at 2:11) who are rockin' their butts off here ... but Brian Setzer smashes this one on his Christmas Extravaganza 2005. If you haven't seen it, check it out. Freakin' Awesome! Again, absolutely no disrespect for Dave, I love him to death.
This is the best video version of the song, and of course I listening to Chuck Berry's original recording every Christmas. And Rock'n'Roll Christmas w. George Thorogood etc. is another great Christmas song. I love Christmas Rock and Blues!!
Glad you have added this, it was on here last year but I l couldn't find it the other day. The picture quality was much the same, possibly a little clearer. I wonder where those lovely dancing girls are, they would be be about 50 now!
@Connplayer i looked for this too and could not find it this year, found it on some remote russian website, xmas not the same without this on youtube, i am still hunting for a better copy, lol them girls would be same age as me now lol (50)
i'd love to find a good mp3 of this. he's burnin' it up here.

I'm not sure which is more out of style, Dave Edmunds' mullet or Larry Bud Mellman.
