I first bought this in 1973 the week it was released and I've done the same thing in 2006. Wonder if it'll get to No 1 again? It might seem like it's re-released every year but it isn't really.
It's been re-mastered as part of the current cycle of re-mastering and re-releasing all SLADE's music and it sounds fresh and clean again. It's backed with 'Cum On Feel The Noize' and there's another limited version with a green cover with extra Christmas songs but, I think, this is only available from Asda as part of it's current TV campaign (or, at least, that's the word on the SLADE wires).
You've heard this song hundreds of times every Christmas since 1973 but it sounds so much better blasting out of your own speakers. Go on, you know you want to ... buy it and play it loud!
If I'm very lucky, mine will be the first review of the single on iTunes...
