5 out of 5 stars Traditional Country Fan.......2002-05-25

.... I was not disappointed at all. It is a must buy for the price. It has a good mixture of old and new songs. I grew up listening to Conway and will probably wear this CD out. When I get tired of listening to some of the junk on the radio today, this is the CD I turn to and think how much I miss Conway.

5 out of 5 stars Real Country.......2001-01-12

If you are interested in real country music, this is the CD for you. This my friends is what country music is supposed to sound like, not that crap that they play on the radio now. Conway's voice can send chill bumps up and down your skin. He puts so much emotion in to each and every song that it sounds like he is singing it just for you. So if you like Real country this is the album to buy.

5 out of 5 stars One of the Best REAL! Country Cd's around........2000-04-11

This here is an example of REAL country. This man can sing. This is a great cd. If you love old country or new country...heck if you love any type of music you will LOVE the great work of Conway Twitty. Buy it. It is a great value for such great music.

5 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT.......1999-07-25

THIS IS A WONDERFUL CD. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT

5 out of 5 stars This cd is one of the greatest of all time.......1999-05-30

I love all classic country but this one is probably my favorite cd of all time i would recomend it to anyone who likes country music or even slow rock its the best.

    Since the Windham Hill imprint's Winter Solstice series was born in 1985, the concept has gone through some changes, bottoming out with 1999's abysmally kitschy Winter Solstice on Ice. With this Silver Anniversary Edition, Dawn Atkinson, who produced the first Winter Solstice disc, has gone back to her original concept of nontraditional seasonal music and novel arrangements of Christmas classics. She's also brought in some old standbys, soliciting works from Paul McCandless, Barbara Higbie, Will Ackerman, Philip Aaberg, and Liz Story.

    Much of this new Winter Solstice turns on classical themes. Ex-Kronos Quartet cellist Joan Jeanrenaud teams with guitarist Steve Erquiaga on an airy Handel piece, and McCandless adapts Orlando Gibbons's "The Silver Swan." Others explore traditional carols, including Erquiaga's double-guitar filigree on "Greensleeves." As with past titles in this series, the best compositions are usually the originals.

    Keyboardist Tim Story, a Winter Solstice stalwart, unfolds another gorgeously melodic ambient chamber piece called "What Comes December." Tracy Silverman and Thea Suits turn in a wistful duet for electric violin and flute, and TV composer W.G. Snuffy Walden goes soft focus on "Moon Lake." While "Beneath the Trees," by Ackerman and Aaberg, seems born in the snow-covered trees of Ackerman's Vermont home, Hawaiian Ozzie Kotani's "Queen's Prayer" seems to have nothing to do with the season. Yet, it somehow fits the mood. --John Diliberto

    5 out of 5 stars This is how traditions begin.......2007-07-24

    This disc is way, way up there among the best in the series - and this whole series is a "must have" in my book. Most of the songs in this series, and certainly in this disc, would not be considered traditional Christmas music. But for me, the season would lose much of it's charm without this playing in my home. Traditions become traditions because they are enjoyable, and if you give this series (and especially this volume) a chance, you won't regret it.

    Lastly, the 30th anniversary of Windham Hill Winter's Solstice discs came and went in 2006. Too bad - a commemorative effort would have been most welcome.

    5 out of 5 stars Solstice goes back to its original style with maturity.......2007-01-04

    This is one of the best "Solstice" albums. There is a maturity to the choices on this album which has been lost on the last two "solstice" albums. All are new selections by Liz Story, Philip AAberg. W.G. Snuffy Walden (West Wing theme) is also represented. All in all this is a very enjoyable offering. Highly recommended.

    4 out of 5 stars Seasonal mood music to surround yourself in.......2002-11-27

    This CD and likewise this review is aimed at those who know Windham Hill and appreciate the music put out by the company. It seems logical to presume that if you're reading this review, you enjoy the music that embraces new age, world, smooth jazz and light classical genres.

    Indeed, as others have pointed out, this is a new recording and has different material than the original Winter's Solstice. In fact, I'll admit that I was disappointed not to find "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" here.

    Nevertheless, this is uplifting and inspiring music for the season. You'll find some traditional such as "Greensleeves", "Come All Ye Shepherds", "Down In Yon Forest", along with Handel's "Col Partir La Bella Clori", Orlando Gibbons' "The Silver Swan", and the notable "Queen's Prayer" by Hawaii's last queen, Queen Lili'uokalani.

    But you'll also find the originals composed by some of the performers such as Richard Schonherz, Tracy Silverman, Jim Brickman, W.G. Snuffy Walden, Will Ackerman and Philip Aaberg, Liz Story, and Tim Story to be the equal if not sometimes better than ther older ones.

    This is for those who can find a depth of sound and beauty in quiet and simple music, who can enjoy the depths of the instrumentation without thinking it bland, boring or repetitive.

    5 out of 5 stars Bravo Windham Hill!!.......2002-02-07

    The Silver Anniversary Edition of "A Winter's Solstice" is grounded in the very roots of Windham Hill. The series was origionally started as an instrumental alternative to traditional Christmas music, with a focus more on the concept of the winter solstice. That's exactly what you get on this eighth recording of the series. Featuring different compostions from the origional (1985) "A Winter's Soltice," you will not be disappointed! Whether you're a long time fan of the series or just exploring some new music, this cd is full of beautiful instrumentals - i.e. solo piano, guitar, violin, cello, flute, oboe, harp, English horn, synthesizers and percussions. Some of my favorite songs - Shades of White by Jim Brickman, Handel's Col Partie la Bella Clori by Joan Jeanrenaud & Steve Erquiaga, Greensleeves by Steve Eruiaga, Moon Lake by W. G. Snuffy Walden, Beaneth the Trees by Will Ackerman & Philip Aaberg, and Down in Yon Forest by Jeff Johnson & Brian Dunning.

    Is it Christmas music? Yes. Music for anytime, any season? Yes. Play it all year round! Really the only Christmas song, per say, is Greensleeves which was adapted to What Child Is This. I have most of the Winter Solstice cd's, but this is one of my favorites out of the entire series. Bravo to Windham Hill and Happy Anniversary! It's a perfect companion on cold, snowy winter days, especially since it is a celebration of winter itself. As I write this, it is snowing here. I am listening to this very cd and enjoying a cuppa hot tea. I am celebrating the beauty of winter God has blessed us with. Buy it. Pop it in your cd player and bask in the beauty of "A Winter's Solstice - Silver Anniversary Edition."

    4 out of 5 stars Beautiful Music for Any Season of the Year.......2001-12-27

    When is a Christmas album NOT a Christmas album? When it's a Windham Hill "Winter Solstice" album. For their silver anniversary edition, Windham hill put together a collection of all new recordings. These are all instrumental and mostly original compositions. The only song you'll recognize with overtly holiday overtones is the opening track, the traditional "Greensleeves," whose tune was used for the hymn "What Child Is This."

    These songs all have a haunting beauty to them and are very soothing and peaceful--the perfect kind of background music for the holiday season or any other time of the year.

    Among my favorite tracks are the collaboration between William Ackerman and Philip Aaberg on "Beneath the Trees" and multi-instrumentalist Barbara Higbie's "Come All Ye Shepherds" where she alternates on hammered dulcimer, violin, piano and Celtic harp.

    Overall, this is 52 minutes and 48 seconds of pure bliss. Enjoy. RECOMMENDED

    5 out of 5 stars Where were you in '62........2002-06-15

    Nostalgia, much as love, is subjective. For this reviewer, the peak time for pop-rock music was the period that started roughly when Elvis returned from the U. S. Army in 1960 and ended when the Beatles conquered America in 1964. Doo-Wop was dominant and folk-rock was stirring. A youthful cheerfulness and fresh enthusiasm was carried over into popular music. Maybe we were young and dumb, but we sure had fun. Then Oswald killed Kennedy, we watched our innocence crash in flames, and the music gradually changed. Instead of Doo-Wop and classic R&B, the later '60s music featured vapid lyrics, drug-induced rhythms, and limp-wristed hippie music. Pop music lost much of its light-hearted pep. Fizzle replaced pizzazz. Contrast Little Eva's "The Loco-Motion" (1962) with Spiral Staircase's "More Today Than Yesterday" (1969) and you get the idea.

    This album includes good examples of the best period in pop-rock music. Shelley Fabares took time off from "The Donna Reed Show" long enough to sing "Johnny Angel." In 1961, The Tokens recorded one of the all-time great folk-rock songs, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," with the distinctive "Wimoweh" background chant. Dion's "Donna the Prima Donna" has a fine hand-clapping beat. Neil Sedaka sings No. 1 hit "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do." Ricky Nelson does "Travelin' Man" and Little Peggy Marsh makes feminists ill with "I Will Follow Him." WCBS FM101.1 is New York's Oldies station. This album is part of their 25th anniversary celebration. It includes brief comments on each song in the liner notes. Although late '60s music is also included, the good stuff dominates and carries this album. Repeat listening increases the enjoyment. ;-)

    5 out of 5 stars WCBS FM101.1 25th Anniversary The 60's.......2000-09-05

    Wow, it's just like listening to the local oldies station. If you are in to oldies like I am, you must have this collection. These are the original recordings also!!! I just can't get over how real the music was then. It seems to be so contrived now. This collection is a perfect example of what music is like when it's not contrived. I get chills when I hear "A Lover's concerto" and theme from "A Summer Place". The music may not have the same effect on you, but I still highly recommend this CD. It is a must for any collection!!!

    5 out of 5 stars New York's Oldies Station Rocks On........2002-05-23

    Nostalgia, much as love, is subjective. This collection is noteworthy for its eclectic selection. Most of the songs are from the vintage years 1956-1959. It includes three by Elvis. Oldie albums frequently ignore the King. It also presents rare masterpieces such as Ed Townsend's "For Your Love," The Impalas' "Sorry (I Ran All the Way Home)," and "It's Only Make Believe" by Conway Twitty. Snuggle in as Johnny Ace sings "Pledging My Love," and Johnny Mathis offers "Chances Are." The Isley Brohters' "Shout (Parts 1&2)" rocks your CD player for almost 5 minutes. Drift off to sleep with Santo & Johnny's "Sleepwalk." WCBS FM 101.1 is New York's oldies station. The cover tells us that much. The liner notes include brief comments on each of the 25 songs. If you think that U-2 is a submarine, and that Britney Spears is famous only for Pepsi commercials, you are a perfect fit for this CD. Toe-tapping, finger snapping fun in the best tradition. Get your best girl, comb back your DA, and boogie on over to the drive-in. You're so hip you won't even eat a square meal! This is a superior sampling of nifty-fifties rock, R&B, and pop. Dig it. ;-)

    5 out of 5 stars Simply Astounding!.......2000-05-09

    This collection is a nice introduction to the music of the 50's. It starts off with Elvis and really doesn't quit. Buddy Holly, The Platters, Everly Brothers, Isley Brothers, so many to choose from. My two favorites are "It's All In The Game" by Tommy Edwards and the original "Love Potion #9" by the Clovers. A great disc.

            3 out of 5 stars Original band was much grittier and more enjoyable..........2004-12-11

            A double disk live concert from 1995. John Kay is the one original member and he has surrounded himself with a very talented band but it's not Steppenwolf. The original band was much more gritty. About 40% of the concert are songs they made from the 90's and while I respect and think it's crucial for a band to continue to churn out new material to be relative, the material they create today is pretty mundane. The highpoint for me is that they performed "Snowblind Friend", a powerful song about a buddy they Kay to drugs. Of course if includes all their hits including another favorite of mine The Pusher, but they sounded so much better the first time around.

            5 out of 5 stars Still wields power and poise!.......2004-02-04

            Very enjoyable 2 cd set. The sound is more polished, less raw than the original recordings. A few tracks are arguably better due to the crowd and Kay's banter before and after each track. HEY LAWDY MAMMA, DESPERATION,MONSTER, SNOWBLIND FRIEND are standouts due to some extended jamming flourishes not as evident in the originals. I never realized just how socio-political Kay's lyrics were when I first listened back in 1968. MONSTER is relevant today though not exactly as originally intended (ie anti-war,military/industrial complex)...it's theme actually fits nicely when superimposing the "Terror-War" as the new MONSTER. strange that.
            Worth the price...great music also.
