Ultra-Lounge: Best of Christmas Cocktails

A great classic Christmas CD. My favorite Christmas island. A great bunch of Christmas classics to get you in the Holiday mood.

This is a superb collection of sometimes eclectic works of what I consider 'lounge' music for Christmas. Great for the background at your party! Recommended? Yes

This recording has a very nice program and the artists are very good. Really it was a nice surprise buying it.

Not a loser in the bunch. The CD will put you in the Christmas spirit and will be a great soundtrack to your holiday party.

great

For baby boomers who remember these tunes and renditions, it is a great CD. This music helped me recall Christmases as a child with my family in the 1950's and 1960's - especially the silver tree with the illuminated color wheel. The music quality is good, the performances are classic.

Ultra Lounge Presents Best of Christmas Cocktails is a great CD; you get many classic Christmas tunes by great vocalists all remastered carefully to sound as good as they could ever sound. The quality of the sound is therefore excellent; and quite a few singers are featured on this album. Peggy Lee's "Happy Holiday" starts the album off with a snazzy, jazzy rendition of this classic Christmas tune. The percussion is great and Peggy never sounded better! Listen also for Dean Martin to deliver "Winter Wonderland" with panache and a certain boyish excitement that really is infectious! Moreover, Billy May's "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" sports that late 1950s/early 1960s Latin flavor--it's more than enough to keep you toasty warm both inside and out! I really like Bing Crosby's "Frosty The Snowman;" Bing delivers this perfectly and his excellent diction bolsters his performance. The backup vocalists on "Frosty The Snowman" make the number even better! Lena Horne delivers a heavenly rendition of "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" as only she could. "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" uses the brass, strings and percussion very well. "Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" gets the royal treatment from Wayne Newton who delivers this with great sensitivity; and Julie London sings a silky smooth "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm." The liner notes have great artwork and we get the song credits as well. Awesome! Overall, any fan of Christmas music is sure to love this album. You get hit after hit after hit without a single dud in the bunch. Get this today and enjoy it--`tis the season!

Christmas Cocktails is a interesting Christmas CD. It reminds me of the hard to find misic that you can hear on the Radio Stations. I would recommend it to listen to.
