2011 studio album by Chicago
Chicago XXXIII: O Christmas Three is the twenty-second studio album, the second full album of Christmas songs, and thirty-third overall by the American rock band Chicago. The album was released on October 4, 2011. The collection includes a variety of holiday classics and a new tune, "Rockin` and Rollin` on Christmas Day", co-written by founding trumpet player Lee Loughnane.
The album was produced by veteran producer Phil Ramone, who co-produced the band`s albums Hot Streets (1978) and Chicago 13 (1979). The album features guest artists Dolly Parton on Paul McCartney`s "Wonderful Christmas Time", America on "I Saw Three Ships", BeBe Winans on "Merry Christmas Darling", and guitarist Steve Cropper on "Rockin’ and Rollin’ on Christmas Day".
Chicago XXXIII: O Christmas Three was preceded by Chicago XXV: The Christmas Album in 1998,[1] which, itself, was reissued in 1999 with one new track[citation needed]; and in 2003 under a new title, What`s It Gonna Be, Santa? with six new tracks.[2]
