5.0 out of 5 stars A really fun CD, November 13, 2006

This CD absolutely smokes! A collection of incredibly, hot, innovative latin-jazz interpretations of holiday classics. This CD is not designed for quiet fireside contemplation. I played it last year while we trimmed the tree and the entire family ended up bopping around the family room. Truly a lot of fun!

PLEASE NOTE: This CD was put out a couple of years ago as "Playboy's Latin Jazz Christmas: A Not So Silent Night" but with a different cover. That's great because the original had a Playboy Bunny on the cover which may have discouraged some people from checking it out. That was a shame because it's an absolutely wonderful CD.

Muy caliente! Sizzle doesn't get spicier than this collection of Latin-infused versions of holiday favorites: "Silent Night" as a cha cha, "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" as a mambo. Ho-ho-ho has never sounded more hot-hot-hot!

I hate to be caught listening to Christmas music all year round, but this is the CD to make me do it. This is more than just great Christmas music, it is great music. I love the job the liner notes do in educating me on the finer points of Latin jazz. Listening to the artists on this CD has led me to look for more music from several of them. Some of my favorites don't have a lot out there, so I guess I'll just listen to Christmas music in July.
