Scott Weiland Prepping Christmas CD
Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland is getting a jump on the holidays. The singer recently told "Explore Music" that he's working on a Christmas CD. He said he's taking a conventional route with the project, noting, quote, "It'll be very traditional. You know, strings, upright bass, jazz horns, piano, and guitar." While he was vague about the track listing, he offers, quote, "I'm sort of picking various versions of these songs, because they've been covered so many times, but my favorite versions -- with a little twist." Weiland dropped one detail -- that he's recording a reggae version of "The Little Drummer Boy." He also added -- when the interviewer tried to compare Weiland's upcoming set to Rob Halford's holiday CD -- that his disc, quote, "is not a metal Christmas thing." The title and release date for Weiland's Christmas album haven't been announced yet. The upcoming album isn't Weiland's first foray into holiday music. Last December he covered "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," which was released as a single. He also performed the song on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."
