5.0 out of 5 stars Warm Upbeat Christmas album, November 27, 2007

This review is from: Merry From Lena (Audio CD)

I already owned this album when it was released on another label a few years ago, but ordered this new release anyway. This is one of Lena Horne's best albums and one of the best Christmas albums out there. I'm glad it has been reissued, because years ago it was very hard to get. Listening to this Christmas cd, I am transported back to when life was more enjoyable in the world. It reminds me of my favorite Christmas's as a child. The sound quality is crystal clear. Although in the linear notes, I don't understand why the writer felt the need to trash Andy Williams. Not that I'm a fan, but I felf an unnecessary comment was made for a cd release. Anyway, I hope this album stays in print for years to come, this time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The sexiest christmas albul ever, August 15, 2002

I first heard this album playing in a K-Mart store over the music system doing the 60's. I thought--"a sexy Roudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer?"--and I was right. I searched for the album for many years thereafter and was not able to find it. I would catch songs from it every now and then during the xmas season on store music system but no one had the entire record. Then came Amazon.com and I found it. The best xmas album ever made--during the season I listen to it constantly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas the Only Way--Lena's way!, November 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Merry From Lena (Audio CD)

This is a must have Christmas CD! My only dissappointment is that not all the songs listed are on my copy. But the ones that are there are superb! The first song I ever heard from Lena was Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! I was probably 6 or 7 and my grandmother had an album of various artists and that cut was on there from Lena and I fell in love with a wonderfully talented artist. I've been hooked ever since. Her voice is sexy and haunting and delightful--all at the same time. IF YOU ONLY OWN ONE CHRISTMAS CD--THIS SHOULD BE IT!!!
