If you enjoy vocal groups like Manhattan Transfer, The Nylons, New York Voices, Take 6, etc., you'll enjoy Point of Grace. The swing elements are fun, and the harmonies are tight. Their delivery on this Christmas classic even possesses hints of The Andrews Sisters. Enjoy!

I would add this light, upbeat version to play along side Johnny Mathis, Andy Williams and similar classic Christmas music, although this is a little more modern version. The voices are very "soft" and perform in a gentle harmony. Contrast that with other versions that may have richer or bolder harmony; this, however, stands well on its own merits. There are some jazzy riffs here and there, some soft, jazzy hi hat/drum rhythm in the background. I don't think any one voice stands out on this piece, but together they work very well. Not quite the Lennon Sisters (if you know who they are), but along the same vein. Personally, I enjoyed this piece and am pleased to add it to my Christmas music collection.

If Lawrence Welk was alive today and continuing his show, I think you would hear this group performing this piece on his show. (Not an insult, just an observation of how easily this piece could fit into that genre as well as a jazz or other similar genre.)

I absolutely love this CD. This CD,as well as their Christmas CD, A Christmas Story, are my 2 favorite Christmas CD's. There is a lovely mix on each of traditional Christmas music everyone knows as well as different songs. I actually listen to some of these other songs year round. Highest rating!!

The Puppini Sisters constantly bring a smile to my face with their songs. The three part harmonies are perfectly balanced, and each singer is brilliant. Their Christmas Album is the perfect platform for their throwback style. Check them out - you won't be disappointed!

This piece was a part of a holiday sampler that I got and I like it.

Point of Grace is one of my favorite and groups and they don't disappoint with this song. The vocals are wonderful!
