5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!!, October 28, 2000

This review is from: The Most Fabulous Classical Christmas Album Ever! (Audio CD)

I'm not going home for the holidays this year. To kill the homesickness I ordered "The Most Fabulous Classical Christmas Album Ever!" - and believe me, I'm not at all disappointed!

This CD is packed with 28 traditional Christmas Carols. It almost takes you back to those magical times when you were a kid on Christmas Eve night, waiting for Santa to make his annual appearance!

The sound quality is superb - which is quite impressive when you consider that a number of the tracks on the CD were actually recorded in the 1950's and '60s.

There is also a really good introduction in the CD case insert which tells how these carols were really recorded during the summer, so they could be released in time for Christmas. It also tells a humorous story of how Irving Berlin has to record White Christmas in the middle of an LA heatwave!!

If you're looking for a CD to get you into the Christmas spirit when opening your gifts on Christmas day, or something to drown out the usual family arguments at the Christmas dinner table, then order The Most Fabulous Classical Christmas Album Ever!

You really won't regret it!

This CD really brings back memories of growing up in the 60s, where the Boston Pops on TV were an annual Christmas treat. It's the nostalgia value that makes the CD so great. Just remember that the recordings are old, so don't expect modern-day digital perfection!

4.0 out of 5 stars All Your Christmas Favorites on One CD, December 24, 2002

This review is from: The Most Fabulous Classical Christmas Album Ever! (Audio CD)

I am very happy with this CD. I received it as an early Christmas present and it put me right in the mood for the holidays. It is a classical Christmas album, so expect an operatic quality to it - think orchestra concert or Christmas Eve church services. The Sleigh Ride is excellent... also good are Carol of the Bells, God Rest You Merry Gentlemen, Joy To The World, We Wish You a Merry Christmas and the Hallelujah Chorus at the end. I do think that I Wonder as I Wander (one of my favorites), performed by Leontyne Price, is a little over the top. Her voice sounds great - it's just not to my taste.
With 28 songs and 77 minutes of total play time, you can hardly go wrong with this little beauty.
A good buy!
