5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best Christmas CDs Ever, December 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: CHICAGO XXV (25) - THE CHRISTMAS ALBUM (Audio CD)

It's almost a rite of passage for pop artists to release a Christmas collection. Most of them are far from memorable. This one, however, is a classic. These are stunningly original takes on old favourites, with that unmistakable Chicago sound throughout.

This one has instantly become my favourite holiday CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Chicago's slant on Christmas is innovative & thrilling!, November 10, 1999

Chicago XXV is dominated by great vocals and the brass section. Bill Champlin lead and backing vocals dominate this effort. What Child Is This? is breathtaking and really showcases his tallents. He even gets funky with his organ playing and soulful voice on Santa Clause is Coming To Town. Then Robert Lamm does his thing on Christmas Time Is Here. He also has lead vocals on three other songs. This album continues Lamm's return to the forefront as a vocal force for this band which started with Night & Day (Big Band). The horn section blares throughout the CD also a continuation from Night & Day. My 7 year old daughter just loves this CD and so will you!

A great Cd by the kings of rock and horns. The band is tight throughout the entire Cd. A great blend of vocals and instruments. Chicago puts its unique style to some classic holiday music. The only drawback is that the Cd ends and you still want more. A truly fine effort by this legendary band that should be but is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
