5.0 out of 5 stars A Lovely Journey back in time!!, November 13, 2009

This review is from: Christmas with the King Family (DVD)

I loved the shows back in the sixties and it was really nice to see them again. I only hope this will motivate them to release their other shows as well. The scenery, the warmth emitted from the family members to each other and of course the most pleasant singing you don't see or hear anymore! It was nice to see the cousins and kids all grown up and of course very special to see the 2 remaining King Sisters together. I loved watching them perform as a child and was very glad to see them now. If you want to be transported back to a more innocent and sweet time where families showed each other respect and kindness just take a little time to view this dvd.

This show is a hoot. I can still remember the King Family Specials as if it were yesterday. This collection of clips is wonderful and the rememberances from the family members today especially the young ones is priceless. There is also a complete show on this disc that reminds us all of a simpler time. If you love and remember the King Family as I do buy this DVD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Nostalgic Christmas Blast From The Past, But....., December 18, 2010

This review is from: Christmas with the King Family (DVD)

Thsi is a wonderful christmas DVD that gives us a nice nostalgic blast from the past. Some great christmas msuic led by a family of wonderful singers. Fans of FRED WARING, LIVING VOICES, RAY CONNIFF, VOICES OF WALTER SCHUMANN, and especially LAWRENCE WELK, will find much to enjoy here. Some nice soloists from the KING FAMILY step out here, too. You also get a nice backing orchestra here.

Great christmas songs like THE CHRISTMAS WALTZ and I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS along with some nice medleys make this a great christmas mood setter that is wonderful not only for your own entertaining but also as something to put on in the background when entertaining guests at your home for during the holidays.

While still worthy of 5 stars, the only thing that sometimes gets in the way of the beautiful music (and this is all IMO), is that they have family members still around today speaking about the times of these christmas recordings that were part of the KING FAMILY christmas specials on TV back int he 1960's and 1970's and this is fine in itself between songs, but too often they cut into a song so you don't get the whole song (that is, they interrupt the song). Sometimes you get the whole song afterwards, sometimes you don't. It kinda bothers me a bit when you're enjoying the song then they simply cut into it with family members suddenly speaking about that time. That said, you easily still get enough songs in their entirety to enjoy this DVD and as you can see, many others have also given this a 5 star rating.

I really do very highly recommend this for some christmas cheer. It really is entertaining! And get the CHRISTMAS WITH THE KING FAMILY cd when (if) you get this. They're both awesome!
