well, maybe three ad a half
this is a wonderful album, but i just do not get a couple of performances. i am a big fan of tom waitts, but this is not his kind of thing. you can't growl a carol (maybe van morrison can). and it does not seem appropriate sexing up 'in the bleak...

One of the best Xmas CDs out there - unless you don't like good music
This CD is heartfelt and unique, with great instrumentation and good production and has a nice sampling of guest artists. But overall the Blind Boys voices are what makes it shine. They really make the songs thier own - even the ones you've heard...

This one's going to be a classic
Let me add my voice to the praise for this album. I've heard numerous versions of most of these songs and "Blind Boys" have just reset my ultimate covers for both "Go Tell it on the Mountain" and "In the Bleak Midwinter" just to name a few....

A bluesy gospel Christmas album with special guests

Really Fine Christmas Gospel
It should go without saying that The Blind Boys of Alabama are a national treasure. And any collection of Christmas songs by them would be a welcome addition to any holiday season. That said, this is a generally fine CD, with many special...

A MOST WELCOME, ECLECTIC YULETIDE RECORDING
The Blind Boys of Alabama have been recording for more than 60 years, and only now have gotten around to recording a holiday CD. The result? A work of both comforting familiarity and startling innovation. There are genre-crossing guest appearances...

A "Must" for your Christmas Collection
This is perhaps the best collection of Christmas-related material that I have heard in the last twenty years! I was hooked from the very first track. The Blind Boys are fantastic with or without guest vocalists, but most of the pairings work...
