Pearson, the man responsible for Last of The Country Gentleman – one of the strongest and starkest folk albums of the year – has shared with us his take on the traditional “O Holy Night.” Pearson’s rendition, much like his own music, finds the dark troubadour stretching out (just over 8 minutes) sounding not unlike the late John Fahey. The holidays are here, indeed.
