5.0 out of 5 stars "Hall & Oates show how it's done", December 15, 2006

By	W. Euler - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ist of all this is both Hall & Oates unlike you've probably ever heard them,and secondly you'll be thinking "What took them so long to realize they needed to do this." What comes off here is simply one of the most heartfelt Christmas performances barr none to be recorded. For one, pop artists are realizing their audiences are wanting to hear more than "Santa Clause is coming to town" kind of songs. Bottom line is your going to love this! I believe their version of "O HOLY NIGHT" is truely the finest version ever recorded, and I have favorite versions by others namely Nat King Cole. Note of warning Amazon shows this as an expensive Import, FYE is selling this nationally for 9.99!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, soulful Christmas music, March 22, 2007

By	Azuree Devine "blue angel" (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This compilation of Christmas songs has some of the most wonderful holiday songs ever written. They range from Christmas classics as "Jingle Bell Rock" and "The Christmas Song" (the latter sung most soulfully by Mr. John Oates) to cover songs performed in the "rock & soul" manner that Hall and Oates became famous for. ("Christmas Must Be Tonight", "Children Go Where I Send Thee") My personal favorites are "The First Noel" and "O Holy Night"; they're sung with such soul and depth that I come close to crying whenever I hear them. This is one album that almost anybody can treasure during the holidays and throughout the wintertime.
