4.0 out of 5 stars Why did it take so long to release this Christmas gem?, March 10, 1999

By A Customer

Ever since CD's became the vogue for music, I've waited for this classic Christmas album by Charley to be released on CD. It was done during his peak recording era - though he still can outsing many of today's so-called stars.

Just listen to the spine-tingling rendition of They Stood in Silent Prayer - retelling the story of Christmas with its lush arrangement. Or the joy of Christmas, remembering how you felt when you were 'that' young in Christmas in Our Home Town or Santa and the Kids.

Believe it or not - trivia buffs - Charley is actually credited for writing a couple of the songs on this album - Santa and the Kids. Happy Christmas Day.

The album captures the spirit of Christmas - from the traditional tunes and their country arrangements with Charley's renditions to new treasures like those mentioned above.

Charley has an understated way of sticking to the melodies, letting the song be the star along with the arrangements. But still distinctively Charley.

One of the Best country Christmas albums around. Go for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy Christmas Day, November 29, 1999

By A Customer

The entire selection is great. I have been looking for this for quite some time. I think it is one of if not the greatest Christmas selection my family has heard. We have the album but were now seeking it in CD. It has been a family selection for years (album form). Since my children were small, it has been the selection played during the decoration of our tree at Christmas.

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy Christmas Day, December 21, 2001

By	Cherie Simmons (Culver, OR USA) - See all my reviews

My heart jumped for joy when I realized that this was the album that my family listed to growing up. The songs are so special to me. We had the eight track growing up and I am ordering one for my parents. No one in my family has been able to find this music. Charlie Pride has a wonderful voice and the songs are uplifting and bring out the true meaning of Christmas. I feel like I just got the Best Christmas present ever.
