Just a nice combination of songs. Our whole family enjoyed this last year and I'm buying it for several friends this year.

Loved this CD with some of my old favorites... and it is so hard to find "Dominick the Christmas Donkey!" The CD was Priced right and arrived in great condition.

I bought this cd only because it has the dominic the donkey song on it!! But the whole cd is pretty good.

Very nice cd! Price was right, shipping was prompt. I am satisfied with everything. A lot of great hard to find songs on this cd!

"Dominick the Donkey" is a classic! Kudos to Rachel for adding it to this excellent CD!

The ubiquitous Rachael Ray concentrates on mostly classic Christmas tunes by classic artists with the added inclusion of a few contemporaries like Hall and Oates and Buster Poindexter. I wasn't familiar with the jazzy Jane Monheit, but I enjoyed "The Man With The Bag" immensely. Willie Nelson's "Blue Christmas" is fine, but I would have preferred Elvis's or even Porky Pig's. Don't laugh too hard since Rachael chose "Dominick The Donkey," a light-hearted nod to her half-Italian heritage. Sinatra's "White Christmas"?, I'm not sure why- maybe a nod to the Chairman of the Board. He has an excellent "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," but Doris Day sings this one. What, no Dean Martin? The fellow Rat Packer would have fit in nicely as would have Brenda Lee's "Rockin Round the Christmas Tree." The inclusion of Billie Holiday, Aretha, and Elvis more than make up for it, though.

All in all, this is an upbeat, catchy, fun party CD, just like its namesake. Rachael seems to pull off any endeavor flawlessly. Yum!

I enjoyed this Christmas CD. It's great and if Martha Stewart can put out CD after CD. Why not Rachael?! Merry Christmas!!! Too bad "I want a hippotamus for Christmas" did not make the cut!!!Maybe the next one!

Wow,

I assume Rachel was trying to gather some of the worst Christmas songs together and she has succeeded (If "Zat you Santa Claus" doesn't convince you then "Dominick the Donkey" will). Stick to your EVOO and let some other folks compile the tunes.

Evidently Ms. Ray is now so overexposed she needs to have her mug on a Christmas album. If that wasn't enough of a turn-off...well..that pretty much does it for me. How cool is that? It's not.

There's a lot of good Xmas music on this disc, and THANK GOD rachel ray isn't singing one of them. The only chef I want to hear sing is The Chef from The Muppets. Could Rachel Ray be anymore UNCOOL?! I didn't think so until I saw this. What a lame-o!
