Bob Bryden formed the band Christmas on December 25, 1969. At the time, the average age of the band was 17 years old, although Bryden (19) had put out 2 albums earlier with the band Reign Ghost. They released their first two albums in 1970 - according to Bryden, “although our music is heavy, it’s also optimistic. In part, it’s peaceful, and it is something to get into the spirit of”.
Below is their first track from their first album: Just Suppose.
