Reception

Paul Barber from The Music AU gave the album 3 out of 5 saying; "Unfortunately for baby boomers Judith Durham's It's Christmas Time offers nothing particularly new this Festivus. The newer tracks here are pretty good, like "Hark The Herald Angels Sing", "O Happy Day" and the mariachi-flavoured album highlight, "Bambino". But 13 of the 17 tracks come off Durham's 1968 post-Seekers album, For Christmas With Love, although fortunately, her youthful voice smashes out these Chrissy favourites, especially a sensational version of "Amazing Grace".[1]
