1.0 out of 5 stars A Big Christmas CD Disappointment!!, December 9, 2007
One of the worst Christmas CD's I ever heard is - big surprise! - this "Christmas with The Everly Brothers & The Boys Town Choir." (1996 Made-in-Portugal reissue.)

You would think that anything from The Everly Brothers has got to be excellent, wouldn't you? Well, this CD is just downright disappointing. I don't know the history of this Christmas project. I don't know when it was originally produced, by whom and why. It seems like a good concept, showcasing the perfect harmony of The Everly Brothers in Christmas music, but the result is just terrible.

"Christmas with THE EVERLY BROTHERS ... & The Boys Town Choir"? Misleading title!! This CD is more like "Christmas with THE BOYS TOWN CHOIR ... & (whisper) The Everly Brothers."

14 tracks that feature The Boys Town Choir accompanied by a mere organ. And occasionally, the producers let Don and Phil come in for a verse or two. Most baffling to me. What, man??? Why did the Everlys even get involved with this CD???

If you guys haven't purchased this CD, don't bother. Save your money!!

There are hardly any worthwhile Everly Brothers tracks on this CD. Take "Silent Night." Don and Phil start out and then The Boys Town Choir take over in the second half because the boys have left the church.

Merry Christmas, Don and Phil, wherever you are!

JOE WU, still a big Everly Brothers fan
