"SuperStar Christmas"

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2003-10-14
Label: Sony Music Media
"CD compliations for charity are often ho-humm, it seems that producers just ask for songs record companies/artist can spare and release it. But, this CD is something else. Most (not all) of the songs are great interpretation of Christmas classics and almost all have great sound. Personal favorites are Boys II Men's "Silent Night", Tony Benett's "Winter Wonderland", and Luther Vandross "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas". However, the cut above every song is not really a Christmas song but Barbra Streisand's 60's rendition of "Our Father". Too bad the audio of the "Lord's Prayer" isn't really "good" but the song, the arrangement and Barbra's voice will make up for it. If you're just going to buy one Christmas CD, buy this one - and help at the same time... Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"The Christmas Collection: 20th Century Masters CD"

The Supremes
Audio CD: FDO 2003-09-23
Label: Chronicles
"It's a pleasure to hear the original recordings from the 60's re-mastered. Recorded in 1965. Originally released as Merry Christmas on Motown. Florence Ballard’s re-edition of "Silent Night" is awesome. Where has this treasure been all these years? I recently heard another Christmas song sung by Ballard...."O Holy Night" another awesome treasure. Why this wasn't included with this collection is really unknown. Maybe there are more unreleased songs by Ballard, Wilson or Ross. The fact is that this collection is a must for everyone. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas With Demis Roussos"

Demis Roussos
Audio CD: FDO 2003-11-10
Label: Disky
"Ok, so a Christmas Album may not seem that novel an idea, but when you stop and consider it, very few artists make christmas albums these days, let alone one that is really good. As well as timeless classics such as "Silent Night", "White Christmas" and "Merry Christmas Baby", they have also written some new Christmas songs which is a feat for ones so young. They have jazzed up all the old classics and put the Demis Roussos trademark on them. This is a very rare occurence in Christmas CDs which should be given a listen. Demis is one of the biggest stars in the world. I have several Demis Roussos CD's and recently purchased this one. It most certainly puts you in the spirit of Christmas. Such an incredible voice and wonderful instrumentals make this a treasure. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas Hits - 50 Festive Favourites" - CD_02

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2003-11-24
Label: Bmg TV
"The second disc of Christmas Hits is more laid back, with classics from Bing Crosby, Elvis and Tony Bennett mingled with some soulful covers of traditional songs like "Silent Night" and modern classics such as "Last Christmas" and "Walking in the Air". Unfortunately, both of the latter are tortured by Human Nature and Declan Galbraith respectively, and its here that the compilation starts to fall apart. Some of the covers are interesting, but often they highlight just how much better the originals were. There have been plenty of great versions of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town", not to mention the original so why do we get Michael Bolton? The inclusion of Eva Cassidy's "Over the Rainbow" is also a little confusing. It's poignant sure, but since when has it been associated with Christmas? Still, there's plenty here to keep you amused until its time to put the baubles and tinsel back in the loft. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"Christmas Hits - 50 Festive Favourites" - CD_01

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 2003-11-24
Label: Bmg TV
"The first disc of Christmas Hits is dominated by songs from the 70s and early 80s--the Golden Era of the mobile DJ and Christmas number ones, when people sang about "Father Christmas" or "Snow" and couples tenderly proclaimed their love by calling each other "scumbag" or "maggot". And there are plenty of pop songs here that although not ostensibly about Christmas, are certainly in the spirit of things. Just listen to "The Power of Love" (Frankie Goes To Hollywood's poignant last single) or E17's "Stay Another Day" and try not to weep openly through Robson & Gerome's "I Believe", no really, try.

"Christmas Memories"

Barbra Streisand
Audio CD: FDO 2001-10-30
Label: Columbia
"Recorded between July 19, 2001 and September 7, 2001. Includes liner notes by Jay Landers. Christmas Memories was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. Barbra Streisand's first new holiday album in 34 years makes for a special occasion amongst her legions of fans. Christmas Memories, released within two months of the World Trade Center tragedy, is definitely a soothing, inspirational remedy for troubled times. "I'll be Home for Christmas" has been recorded hundreds of times, but in the context of American troops fighting abroad, the song becomes especially poignant. Barbra does a masterful take, with a polished, orchestral arrangement. Still glowing from saying "I Do" to actor James Brolin, Streisand shines on "A Christmas Love Song." Break out the chestnuts and eggnog as Babs warmly reminisces with vivid imagery on the Sondheim-penned "I Remember." Having recorded Gounod's "Ave Maria" on her first Christmas album, Barbra now brings that same passion to Schubert's version. Backed by a choir, the grandiose track resonates powerfully. Her voice soars to especially grand heights over a majestic arrangement on "One God," a song she first heard on a spiritual album by Johnny Mathis, and brings her unique style to the forefront on Christmas Memories. Enjoy!......at 320.0 kb/sec!"

"A Christmas Celebration Of Hope"

B.B. King
Audio CD: FDO 2001-11-06
Label: MCA Records
"After nearly five decades of making music, B.B. King ducked into the studio with his touring band to come up with his very first holiday album, A Christmas Celebration Of Hope. Despite bringing in The Nashville String Machine, co-producer King used them in a way that enhanced his rich singing on lush versions of Billy Ward's "Christmas In Heaven" and a pair of Charles Brown perennials--"Please Come Home For Christmas" and "Merry Christmas Baby." Other artists getting the royal treatment are Clarence Carter (a funky "Back Door Santa") and Amos Milburn (the brass-soaked "Christmas Comes But Once A Year"). The only originals the King Of The Blues trots out are his resurrected 1960 shuffle "Christmas Celebration" and the more recent slow blues instrumental "Christmas Love." King even squeezes in a tribute to the New Year with a rollicking take on Brown's "Bringing In A Brand New Year" and an equally swinging instrumental interpretation of "Auld Lang Syne." In true holiday spirit, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of A Christmas Celebration Of Hope will fund innovative research and compassionate patient care programs at the California-based City of Hope, a world-renowned comprehensive cancer center.

"White Christmas"

Elvis Presley
Audio CD: FDO 2000-09-26
Label: BMG Heritage
"White Christmas is a very smart compilation bringing together beautifully remastered versions of every Christmas song Elvis Presley ever recorded--which is to say the complete Elvis's Christmas Album (one of his best selling LPs), Elvis Sings Christmas Songs (originally a 7 inch EP), and various singles and odds and ends. Interestingly, at the time of the first album's original release, "White Christmas" composer Irving Berlin was so offended by Elvis's rendition that he actually wrote to major radio stations asking them not to play it. Since then, of course, Presley's version has deservedly become classic (as has take on the song's more down-and-dirty opposite, "Blue Christmas"). There's no doubting Elvis's complete commitment to the material here, in particular the gospel tunes like "Take My Hand Precious Lord" that were deleted from RCA's 1970 reissue of the first album.

Various Artists
Audio CD: FDO 1997-10-07

"Many of these songs have been taken from Christmas albums by the individual artists - and have been very well chosen - but there are also tracks by the Mavericks (Santa Claus is back in town), Gary Allen (Please come home for Christmas) and Tracy Byrd (Christmas like Mama used to make it), none of whom have yet recorded a Christmas album. The songs here are a well-balanced mix of the familiar standards and some original songs. The original songs include the tracks by George Strait, Tracy Byrd and the Tractors. Of the standards, Reba's cover of Away in a manger (the most traditional-sounding song here in what is mostly typical nineties country) is my favorite, but every track is excellent.

With the tree lights twinkling and snow falling outside the window. With the smell of the fresh cut christmas tree and cookies and cakes baking in the kitchen. I think of snuggling on the couch with a warm blanket and a hot cup of tea with cookies. That was grandma's specialty!
