Music reviews of Christmas
Music Review: holiday songs that could never be forgotten
Rating: 5 Stars
I love to listen to The Andrews Sisters sing; and this album of Christmas songs by them really showcases their extraordinary talents! These three ladies could harmonize and sing far better than just any old sister act--theirs was a talent so special that even today, decades after these songs were recorded, we can still listen to them on CDs like this one. It's terrific to have Bing Crosby teaming up with them on a few of the songs here, too. The quality of the sound is excellent and I love that artwork, too. If truth be told, this album is a bit too short; but what we do get is nothing but the best Christmastime music we could ever ask for from The Andrews Sisters and Bing Crosby.
"Here Comes Santa Claus" features The Andrews Sisters singing sweetly as Bing Crosby teams up with them to make this number sparkle. The Andrews Sisters harmonize to perfection--and beyond; and Bing Crosby is in his usual excellent form, too. Their excellent diction enhances their performance even more; and the music that plays fits in perfectly with their vocals. "Twelve Days of Christmas" charms me with its beauty; Bing Crosby and The Andrews Sisters again team up and the effect is amazing! They handle complex tempo and key changes like the pros they were and always will be! I love it.
"Jingle Bells" gets the royal treatment from these fine artists who do this one up right! The melody is very spirited--and how's about that brass? They never let go of a single superfluous note and that's grand. Again the song benefits from having Bing Crosby team up with The Andrews Sisters--not that the sisters actually needed help; but they do sound absolutely wonderful doing this number with Bing Crosby. I know they must have had a lot of fun recording this classic tune! In addition, I like "A Merry Christmas at Grandmother's;" The Andrews Sisters and Danny Kaye perform this with panache and it's quite impressive.
"I'd Like to Hitch a Ride with Santa Claus" is cute and well done; and listen for The Andrews Sisters to do a splendid job on "Winter Wonderland." "Winter Wonderland" has a strong arrangement for the brass that works wonders for this tune; and The Andrews Sisters never sounded better! Great! "The Christmas Tree Angel" has fine percussion and the music also uses the strings to great advantage; The Andrews Sisters handle this very well. I enjoy listening to "Poppa Santa Claus;" and "All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth" gives us The Andrews Sisters and Danny Kaye performing a particularly playful number. The CD ends very nicely with The Andrews Sisters teaming up once more with Bing Crosby on a wonderful rendition of "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town." "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" is a classic that I always love to hear and it makes me want to push the play button on my CD player to listen to this CD all over again!
The Andrews Sisters live on through their music; and of course Bing Crosby will always be remembered as one of the best male crooners we ever had. This is a wonderful holiday CD for their fans.
