4.0 out of 5 stars Hipster Holiday, January 28, 2002

This review is from: Bachelor Pad Christmas (Audio CD)

Given the reflexive flinch many have to the onslaught of the holidays (and the ever-present repetition of a couple dozen Christmas chestnuts), it's a treat to slip a disc in the player that brings something a bit hipper and less well-travelled.

The archivists at Mondo Lounge have put together a fine (if a bit short) program of ten tracks, ranging from the swingin' sounds of Ella Fitzgerald ("Let it Snow, Let it Snow") and Wayne Newton ("Jingle Bells") to string and horn-laden instrumentals by Ronnie Aldridge and Edmundo Ros.

In between are ballads from Connie Francis and Mel Torme (including his rendition of his own "The Christmas Song"), and novelties from Jimmy Durante and Spike Jones. It's a nicely balanced program that plays well as both foreground or background entertainment - a perfect addition to your CD changer's holiday set. This is sure to remind you that Santa likes his martini very, very dry!

I did like this cd- if you are into lounge music and all that good stuff you would enjoy this one also. Just beware if you play it around people who have had a bit to much egg nog!
