Sufjan Stevens - Songs for Christmas (Five vinyl box set) [NEW]

A Christmas box set by American singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens.

Spanning five years from 2001 to 2005, this generous 5-LP set features a total of 42 tracks, gathering the traditional carols and original festive songs he recorded each holiday season as personal gifts for close friends and family.

Intentionally left unedited to preserve their raw fidelity and charming imperfections, the songs are packaged just as they were created. The result is a box set filled with an intimate warmth, feeling almost as though you are receiving a hand-crafted Christmas present straight from Sufjan himself.

The artwork and illustrations on each sleeve were also created by Sufjan himself.

"...determined to present the EPs in their original form flaws, blemishes, mistakes and all. A compilation would have been a cumbersome compromise. A “Greatest Hits” would have been heartbreaking (How to choose?).”
