The result was a 7-song recording that he called, Noel, Vol. 1. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver each of the next few Christmas seasons, Sufjan would create a new EP to add to the collection. As he was recording Peace : Volume V (in the summer of 2006), he considered how best to ‘officially’ release this music. He said he was, “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?).” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the music, he wanted to add a ‘lavish display of ornamentation’ to coincide with the spirit of excess and overindulgence that is the hallmark of Christmas. Enclosed in the box, you will find essays, a short story, song chords \u0026amp; lyrics, photos, stickers, a family portrait, and wishes for a Happy Christmas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Asthmatic Kitty Records","offers":[{"title":"5LP Boxset","offer_id":50632637514006,"sku":"RMX-57717","price":98.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/2766864ba4a7a2477e9ff1334aa977ce.png?v=1761148735","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/stevens-sufjan-songs-for-christmas-restock","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
