I have this and the 2000 Hawaiian Slack Key Christmas cut. Both are fabulous but if you had to choose one, I'd favor the 1996 cut for the sweet, mellow sound... the old style.

This is a beautiful collection of holiday music artfully performed and creatively arranged. I find myself playing it throughout the year! You won't be disappointed, in fact, you'll love it.

The guitars sound wonderful on this cd. Nice playing and improvisations, the few vocals are nice. Very mellow cd. Can be played year round. Buy it!
