Editorial Reviews

Volume 6 of this popular series of CDs is new for 2003 and features singers and songwriters from the Pacific Northwest to benefit Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center in Seattle, Doernbecher Children’s Hospital in Portland and Children’s Miracle Network in Spokane.

Christmas in the Northwest 6 features the hit song Christmas in the Northwest by Brenda Kutz White. The CD also welcomes back Loni Rose, and Carolee Mayne. New to the CD compilation this year are Grammy winners Tingstad and Rumbel, Tom Grant with Rebecca Kilgore, Margie Boule, Gypsy Soul, Larry Murante, Deems and Seattle Groove, The Three Wisemen, Kellee Bradley, Kristina Erickson, Christopher Peacock and Gene Nery, and The Chad Mitchell Trio, a favorite across America in the 60’s and 70’s, reuniting specially for this project.

As of 2002, this project has raised over $600,000 for Children's Hospitals, and net proceeds from the sale of this CD benefit northwest children’s hospitals - so that no child is turned away, regardless of their ability to pay for medical care.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Interpretations., December 4, 2003

Nice combinations of old and new. Vocals were impeccable. "Baby It's Cold Outside", while not playfully coy like Ann-Margaret's version, is a sweet duet. "The Marvelous Toy" was equally fun. Thankfully, standard Christmas tunes ("Angels We Have Heard on High" & "O Holy Night") are gently understated. A dynamite compilation album all in all... AND proceeds benefit Children's Hospital. Can't beat that with a stick.

If you want to hear really bad singers from the Northwest, the whole "Christmas In The Northwest series" is for you. If you want your money to go the Children's Hospital, donate it directly to them, not the CD's. Children's had a great idea, but stores like Bartells & Ikea really overkilled it with advertising every 5 minutes. Ikea went so far as to have the actual singers there. The last Christmas in the Nortwest (10 or 11) had a terrible group called the Wannabee Idols singing "I want to be Blake, I want to be Sanjaya". Please do yourselves a favor and Donate directly to the hospital.
