This is a fantastic Christmas CD great for any holiday occasion; holiday dinner/ cocktail party, decorating the house, falling asleep near the dimly lit tree. There are upbeat tunes and jazzy twists on classics. The Manhattan Transfer's beautiful harmonies really bring me back to a New York night at Christmas time. You can just picture the piano and trumpet players loving life as they play. Get this album and have a merry holiday season!
I bought this CD for the title Snowfall. Lovely song. Recommended for that alone, though I've yet to play the other songs.

This is one of my two all-time favorite Christmas albums/CD's (and I collect Christmas music of every sort), the other being the Christmas album by the Singers Unlimited. The common thread is the wonderful arrangements by Gene Purling who sang with the Hi-Lo's and Singers Unlimited and arranged some of the songs in this album. Johnny Mandel produced this album and the album notes state "we wanted to create something fresh, yet with the feeling of love and respect for the traditions of Christmas". This offering is exactly that. Enjoy!
Wonderful vocals. Classic Christmas with a little jazz. I highly recommend this cd.

This recording of Christmas music is just jazzy enough to make it interesting, yet not too untraditional. It is one of our family's favorites and is passed on to children and grand children to enjoy through the years!
