A Partridge In A Pair Tree, January 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: A Partridge Family Christmas Card (Audio CD)
The real-life mother and stepson, have you believing that there was a real family with real Christmas spirit. Including the duet Winter Wonderland. Shirley solos on The Christmas Song and Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas. Sleighride was played constantly on the radio back in 1971-1974 despite missing vocals by David. "He's Comin'-Comin'" added flair to Santa Claus Is Coming To Town. It's all here!...Enjoy!

Partridge Family Christmas Classic, January 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: A Partridge Family Christmas Card (Audio CD)
If I may quote from a Partridge Family episode I still remember from when it first aired: Keith had become infatuated with a classical composer who criticized the Partridges tunes as "so simplistic!" In the final moments of the episode, as the family plays one of their boppier numbers, the composer's teacher and mentor breaks it down for her; "My dear, nothing needs more justification than making people happy." This music is sweet. A great Christmas tradition. MBillow@aol.com

CHRISTMAS MEMORIES, December 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A Partridge Family Christmas Card (Audio CD)
Yes, The Partridge Family was a product: slick, manufactured pop music with only one real voice (sometimes two, when they allowed Shirley's voice to sneak into the mix) from the fun TV show. But do you realize that these musicians and singers were among the best of their day? Who better then to record a holiday album, with spiffy new arrangements of classic songs? Among the best is Tony Romeo's (he wrote I THINK I LOVE YOU) Christmas Card To You, which is a wonderfully sentimental holiday song. Yup, this group is an integral part of my childhood, and evokes a lot of fun -- and funny- memories, but I defy a young listener not to truly enjoy this record on its own musical merit, and as a melodic addition to the season.
