1.0 out of 5 stars Only listened once, December 29, 2007

This review is from: Acoustic Holidays (Audio CD)

I bought this item after searching for something a little different to listen to, as far as Christmas music. I'm all about supporting lesser known artists, but this cd just doesn't make the cut. I couldn't listen to it more than once. A couple of tracks are OK, but the majority are very cheesy and sound like they hired someone off the street to sing them. It would have been better if they stuck to the name of the cd and did acoustic versions of the songs. The songs that were OK were those without vocals. Not pleasing to the ear. Sorry!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Decent Compilation ..., March 14, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Acoustic Holidays (Audio CD)

... gleaned from a number of folk and bluegrass albums. The original material is, by and large, pretty dull. But this is outweighed by the excellent renditions of traditional Christmas songs. The instrumental selections by Grisman, Trischka and Keith are worth the price of the CD. You may even end up purchasing several of the CDs from which this collection is taken like I did.
