Push aside your Christmas decorations, dinner, bright lights and mince pies, the thing which really gets me into the festive spirit is a good Christmas tune. I'm more inclined to prefer an older song than any of the newer ones aside from that Darkness track Don't let the bells end which sadly does not feature on this particular album. Instead I have to put up with Kylie Minogue singing Santa Baby and Stacie Orrico belting out O Come all Ye Faithful. In total there are 44 songs spread over 2 discs so too many to go through especially when the majority of them you will probably have heard from the power of radio, TV or maybe just when you've been out shopping. ...  Read the complete review

Now that the Christmas Tree is up in the Rooster household the old faithful Christmas CD is dragged out from the cupboard it inhabits for 50 weeks of the year and gets its annual dusting off and finds a new home in the CD player.

Over the past 40 years (yes, that long!) I've collected Christmas music in various forms from good old vinyl to tapes & now, thank goodness, all my favourites have been put together on a double CD set & it's called 'The Best Christmas Album in the world'. It's total playing time is 144.39 minutes & it's available from Tesco Extra for only £9.97 - a bargain for myself & family as most of the tracks are really good in my opinion. It would be unfair of me to list all the tracks & singers & boring for you to read, so I'll give you a gist of some of them so you get an idea & then you can have a look for more info if you want - ...  Read the complete review

***Christmas tunes!*** This review is posted on both sites I write for at the same time so that it can be read and then forgotten about as we head through December and into a new year. December is half way through, Christmas is coming, the shops are full of cd’s to buy for presents, listen to in the car and lots of them have a Christmas theme. I nearly bought one, was very tempted, but didn’t and then when I got home and looked to see what I have already in my collection there it was, the cd that I nearly paid £12.99 for in a local large supermarket. Last year I paid £14.99 for it so this year it is a bargain. ***The Best CHRISTMAS ALBUM ...  Read the complete review

I am one of those people who loves Christmas so much that they are upset when it ends, and try to prolong it as far into Januray as possible. Hence my review for The Best Christmas Album in the World...Ever. This CD, published in 1997, is one of the CDs that every family seems to have a copy of, and it contains the vast majority of the classic Christmas songs that everyone knows and loves. I am not going to go through them one by one as there are 44 songs over two discs, and we would be here til next Christmas, however I will note a few of my favourites and then provide a track list so that you can check your favourites are also on here! CD 1 gets ...  Read the complete review
