Customer Reviews

Excellent buy--I should have waited
I should know better. Have very seldom ever gotten a better price than Amazon on music. I paid twice this amount for this collection this weekend--and I still really do think it was worth the price.

What I particularly like about this CD is the mix. You've got old favorites like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra right next to John Legend and Sarah McLachlan. Plus, the sound is very nice.

Here are just a sampling of the songs I've enjoyed:

"Baby, it's Cold Outside" by Ray Charles and Betty Wright is my new favorite cover of this song--you should hear Ray sing 'listen to that fireplace ROAR.' Whoa!

Sarah McLachlan's "I heard the Bells on Christmas Day" has the original spare feeling of this song down pat.

"It Don't Have to Change" with John Legend and the Stephens Family is probably my favorite. It's the only song I've never heard before and it's just a gorgeous gospel number.

Great CD and Great Seller. Thank You from South Florida.
An eclectic group of artists performing holiday music. Great Fun.

The transaction was handled promptly and painlessly and it was everything as described.

I recommend this seller as I had a very pleasant experience. Thank You !!
