5 out of 5 stars That Holiday Feeling by Steve Lawerence and Edie Gorme.......2007-01-16

This CD was hard to find in the stores. However to my delight, Amazon had it in stock. Thank you, thank you, I'll be enjoying this CD for many years to come at Christmas time.

5 out of 5 stars Superb Christmas CD.......2007-01-09


I used to have this "album" on 33 1/3 vinyl and made the mistake of lending it out one year. I have searched for this title for 25 years and finally it was re released. It is the essence of the time of year brought
to you by sincere and dedicated singers who "live" the Holiday season. A must buy.....

5 out of 5 stars One of the Great Holiday Albums.......2006-11-26

Growing up in the 60s and 70s, this was my family's favorite Christmas album. Even with the durable vinyl that Columbia Records used, I believe we went through three or possibly four copies.

With the advent of CDs in the early 80s, I gave up my turntable and sold off most of my LPs -- and of course soon missed this recording, since it wasn't to be found on CD. After dozens and dozens and dozens of listenings over the years, I could "hear" this album in my head, but of course it wasn't the same.

So I was overjoyed to find this recording finally remastered onto CD last year. Having become a musician in the intervening years, when I played the CD I experienced not only nostalgia from my childhood but also found that my now-trained musical ear immediately recognized these instrumental arrangements as being top-notch. Steve and Eydie were of course in exceptional vocal form when they made this recording [and the digital transfer is terrific], but since they are noted for being dedicated to having the right orchestral sound, they certainly chose an excellent crew [headed by the great Don Costa] when they made this recording. The musicians and the orchestrations are a perfect match for the vocalists.

The "big band" sound on some of the tracks is terrific, but the softer selections feature some really shimmering and subtle orchestral work. I won't do a track-by-track review, but here's a prime example: Anyone doing "White Christmas" always has Bing Crosby in their memory, since that song-and-artist are one of the classic partnerships. There have been a LOT of covers over the years, but they've all been lame attempts at being cheery and warm. However, the arrangement here for Eydie Gorme takes a decidedly different tack, starting with a decidedly bittersweet intro and going on to include some rapturous yet very subdued backing vocals. And Miss Gorme's vocals are passionate and full-bodied. The result is a version that is so unique and beautifully artistic that it more than holds its own if anyone insists on comparing it with Crosby's. No easy task, that.

Mr. Lawrence is of course terrific as well. His creamy baritone fits his solos very well -- a smooth sound, and a knack for lyric interpretation. Well, the same can be said for Miss Gorme, for both these artists have a true talent for really dedicating themselves to the song at hand [as opposed to the multitude of performers whose prime concern has been to make the song merely a tool to show off their voices]. On the numerous duets, they both make the fun palpable and engaging.

Given the plethora of pop music Christmas albums that have been produced over the decades, this really is one of the few that really feels like a holiday album. Other artists think merely warbling their way through holiday songs is sufficient, but Lawrence and Gorme are never anything less than a joy -- their infectious fun and heartfelt singing make this sound like a live performance rather than a studio recording. Even the use of sleighbells on one number, usually a very hackneyed, trite, and pedantic orchestral trick, actually contributes to the fun and doesn't sound remotely corny.

So if you like singers with exquisite taste and solid vocal technique, if you like Christmas albums that aren't hokey and workmanlike, and if you appreciate truly artistic and vibrant orchestrations, you will quickly come to love this fine recording.

Forget Amazon's limit of five stars for ratings -- this one gets ten stars from me.

5 out of 5 stars That Holiday Feeling.......2005-12-28

I have enjoyed this for over 30 years. Up until now I had to listen to the vinyl version. It's great they finally made this available on CD and give you 2 bonus tracks too. This is Christmas Music at it's best. I just hope the radio stations add this to their playlist.

5 out of 5 stars Retro rules!.......2004-12-15

I, too, grew up listening to this album in the '70's. I had forgotten how great it was. In fact, I had sort of forgotten Steve and Eydie altogether, until a co-worker received another one of their CD's for a joke birthday gift. To make a long story short, I was reminded of this holiday collection (which, incidentally, you can get for $20 at www.steveandeydie.com), which I promptly purchased and am enjoying very much while I write this review.

Steve and Eydie rock! Their martini-lounge arrangements are truly timeless, and just the antidote to what ails us in 2004. Every song is a delight and a pleasure. And the CD even has two bonus tracks! Buy it, play it, love it, and share it. I personally don't see how I ever spent so many Christmases without it. Ho-ho-ho!!!

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant 1940's music.......2003-10-31

Recorded Christmas music first became popular in the 1940's following the success of Bing Crosby's original version of White Christmas. This British budget collection containing fifty Christmas recordings of the era is as good as anything you are likely to find, especially at the price.

Despite this being a budget release, the sound quality is good (not always perfect) and there are some liner notes that include they year in which each track is recorded - the dates range from 1939 to 1951. This double CD was originally released as two separate budget CD's (one, like this collection, titled That Christmas feeling and the other titled Winter wonderland) and you will find some songs appearing twice, but with a different singer on each CD. I counted nine such songs but I don't mind this duplication. Why should I complain at getting both the Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra versions of White Christmas?

Bing Crosby, the Andrews sisters, Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Doris Day, Perry Como and Nat King Cole account between them for a substantial number of the tracks included here but that's how it should be - but there are plenty of other singers and bands represented here.

Apart from those already mentioned, there are several other great ladies of the era here. Ella Fitzgerald sings Santa Claus got stuck in my chimney. Peggy Lee swings nicely on Winter weather, backed by Benny Goodman. Britain's Anne Shelton sings a beautiful version of Merry Christmas. Child star Deanna Durbin sings O come all ye faithful and Silent night. Margaret Whiting is not represented by a solo recording, but she and Jimmy Wakely sing a great version of Silver bells.

Gene Autry gets two tracks - Frosty the snowman and Here comes Santa Claus, though his most famous Christmas recording, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, is not included, although two covers of the song are. Ernest Tubb's original recording of Blue Christmas is included. Other great singers and bands to be found here include Glenn Miller, Woody Herman, Spike Jones, Eddy Arnold, the Orioles, Dick Haymes, Guy Lombardo, the Boston pops orchestra, Vaughn Monroe and Russ Morgan.

If you enjoy 1940's Christmas music, this is essential.

      Three years after her critically acclaimed "Once In a Blue Moon," singer Margaret Carlson has surpassed herself. Her new album, "This Christmas ... my favorite things," is a collection of some of the world's best-loved Christmas songs, many done with new, modern arrangements by Grammy- nominated arranger Frank Mantooth. Mantooth, along with some of the jazz world's best talents, accompanies Margaret on piano on the album.

      5 out of 5 stars Great songs, great singer, great musicians!.......2001-12-06

      I just came from a concert of Margaret Carlson singing the songs from this album. She is fabulous and the performances are great. Anyone who likes jazz will instantly treat this as a Christmas classic. There are so many Christmas CDs to choose from and most are average at best. I know, I own many of them. ;-) You can't go wrong with this one!

      5 out of 5 stars This is the Christmas CD I've been looking for!.......2000-03-30

      I love the traditional Christmas songs & hymns, but wanted to find something that gave them new life. These arrangements & Margaret Carlson's great voice make you hear them as if for the first time. On several songs, you have the feeling this must be the way the songs were intended to be sung. Her version of This Christmas will be famous some day. Check out Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas (which I never liked too well before hearing her sing it) or Deck the Halls. I got this CD at the beginning of the Christmas season and liked it so well that I bought several to give as early Christmas gifts and everyone loved it. It's as perfect for listening to while you curl up by the fire with someone you love as it is for Christmas parties! And it solves the problem of what to buy everyone for Christmas too!

      5 out of 5 stars A delightful surprise.......2000-03-23

      When we received "This Christmas .... my favorite things" we were somewhat apprehensive. After all Christmas music is so traditional and just shouldn't be messed with. But what a delightful surprise. The arrangements are creative but not extreme and some songs really affect the emotions. Ms. Carlson's voice is fantastic and by far better than the majority of the jazz vocalists we've heard. This gal soon should hit the top. Go girl!

      5 out of 5 stars Great CD, no matter what the season.......2000-01-26

      It's got the classics, but it also takes some of the traditional songs and-with the jazz influence-adds a little spice to them. I love the ones that start out traditional and jump into the jazz.

      5 out of 5 stars That Crosby Feeling.......2003-12-16

      This album features Christmas songs that were not included on Bing Crosby's "Merry Christmas" album (a.k.a. "White Christmas"). This is a terrific selection of Yuletide classics. Another CD by Bing is entitled "The Voice of Christmas", and he really is. His singing on these songs exudes a warmth that is lacking from many other singers. It doesn't say it on the CD, but "Here Comes Santa Claus" and "Twelve Days of Christmas" are duets with the delightful Andrews Sisters. This CD is out of print, but it shouldn't be too hard to find a used copy. I recommend that you do so.

      5 out of 5 stars The Best Album Ever!.......2003-10-08

      I'm sorry although not surprised that "That Christmas Feeling" by Bing Crosby is no longer available. I have to say that, in my opinion, it was not only the best Christmas album ever, but the best album from any genre, from any time.

      It conveyed the best of the best. It was in this collection that Bing Crosby who, like no other, sang Christmas superbly, with arraignments and vocal interpretations second to none. The true meaning of Christmas was unmistakenly painted in music and I have never tired of hearing it, year after year. I play it many times during the Christmas season, and the pleasure of once again enjoying this album only increases with time.

      I'm sad that this album is no longer generally available. It is possible to obtain the songs on a collection of Bing's Christmas music that was released a few years ago, but they lack the warmth attached to the inspired "That Christmas Feeling" compilation. Even though the songs were recorded at different times and probably at different places over a period of 15-20 years, "That Christmas Feeling" came very close to being inspired in the selections that were chosen, and even the manner in which the songs themselves were lined-up, and then recorded. There was a "magic" to it all. It seemed as if they were woven into a kind of Christmas tapestry. Whether this was intended or not, is for someone else to say. However, the magical effect is truly present.

      Unfortunately, the magic is largely gone. You can get the songs that were on the album, but they are re-mixed and digitized, and therefore have lost a considerable amount of the warmth and personality that accompanied the original compilation of "That Christmas Feeling." Even though the album had technical flaws, these flaws actually added to the ambiance that was so important to us who grew up hearing this album. When the attempt to clear up the flaws was completed, there might have been improved sound in some respects, but sound in the selections now betray an uneven "texture" and lack the character and especially the warmth that should characterize the Christmas season, especially music that was sung by Bing.

      I say bring it back, whether people buy it or not. Bring it back with the original cover (a darkened picture of a church) and with all due respect to one of the greatest talents of all time, notwithstanding his bad press and problems. Bing would approve and so would the rest of us who had merrier Christmases thanks to his genius, and especially when hearing yet again "That Christmas Feeling."

      5 out of 5 stars I'm Dying!.......2002-12-12

      My father used to play this record of all others for me when at Christmas time when I was growing up. I'm 21 now and still love it. The record is barely playable, so I wanted to get him the CD for Christmas, but NO it's out of print! It is A CRIME that this CD is no longer available! A CRIME! A CRIME! A CRIME!

      5 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Christmas Gift.......2005-12-12

      One of the greatest voices around has graced us with a Christmas present that should be enjoyed for years to come. This set includes a DVD and an accompanying CD of the show. The song selection is superb, featuring not only seasonal songs, but some of B J's biggest hits as well. His band is wonderful throughout. It is hard to top the closing song ("Grown-Up Christmas List"). Sit back and enjoy the show.

      5 out of 5 stars "In The Air There's A Feeling Of Christmas" .......2006-12-19

      "Let's not forget the reason
      Christmas came to be
      It was God in all His wonder
      Who sent the greatest gift of love
      A child, His son, born in Bethlehem
      Sent down from up above." ~ The Chosen One ~ Kenny Rogers

      What could be a better way to add a sense of nostalgia to your Christmas holidays than listening to the world's most beautiful Christmas melodies of all-time conducted and orchestrated by various conductors from different orchestras? And if the soothing, relaxing and evocative sound of Christmas music is more your style, then you should listen to this collection.
