5.0 out of 5 stars chuck negron--JOY TO THE WORLD-a Christmas must have, December 19, 2002

Chuck Negron, the voice of Three Dog Night, has treated us with one of the finest Christmas albums I own--it is a "must have" for those who love seasonal music and who wax nostalgic for the soulful voice who brought us Joy To The World--the second version. In this CD Chuck brings us Joy to the World again, putting his spin on both the tradional and "new" versions--all in one cut! It is amazing. And his rendering of "When You Wish Upon a Star" gives one goosebumps. Even though this song is not thought of as a traditional Christmas song, Chuck makes it into one. This CD is hard to find but it is well worth any effort it takes. Every cut is incredible. Welcome home Chuck--we have missed you. The Christmas season is even better now because you are in it.

Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing Chuck Negron about his post-Three Dog Night career. Chuck referred to this as the best album he has ever done and I have to agree. Chuck's voice sounds incredible throughout and he is ably supported by great musicians like George Duke and Gerald Albright, the Salt Lake Children's Choir and the Nashville String Machine.

Every track is a standout, with my particular favorites being "Joy To The World" (featuring an arrangement by Chuck that effectively melds the traditional hymn with the Three Dog Night hit of the same name) and one of the first versions of the now classic "Grown Up Christmas List." Add this cd to your collection right away! It ranks among the best modern holiday albums, along with the Phil Spector Christmas and the first Very Special Christmas.

I grew up in the late 60s and early 70s and became a musician. My Mom loved what we played and she had two favorites, The Beatles and Three Dog Night. Later she said she believed she liked the singer of Easy to be Hard more than Paul McCartney. I first bought her this album a number of years ago, her car and the CD were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, and I bought it for her again last year. She turns 80 Jan. 5th of next year and this Christmas she will continue to enjoy this album. From me..........C.N. is still one of the best singers around.
