A Christmas or two ago I bought a Peggy Lee Xmas album because hey that should be *awesome* but actually it was awful. Crystalline example of phoning it in.

Just read the New Yorker article about it, was unsure what to think. I'll take your recommendation.

There's a New Yorker article about this album?

There is. Not a very interesting one, alas.
