I bought a different album and after listening to it, realized that it was not the one I wanted. It was such a pleasure to play it over the Christmas holidays for all the guests that came through my home. My sister has had a taped version of this music for years. This was the album that had all of my old Christmas favorites on it. Buy this album and let it become one of your favorite traditions for Christmas, too. I am a dyed-in-the-wool original Temptations fan. I just celebrated my first Christmas in my new home and could not imagine not playing these favorites during the holidays.
This cd has all of the best songs from each of the two Christmas albums without repeating any songs.Also you get the bonus track "Oh Holy Night".The reviewer who said that this version of "Silent Night" is not notable must not have been listening very closely to Dennis Edward's vocal-"as I sit around the fireplace watching the gleamin' tree, if I had one wish in this world it would be that all men would be free, let's all hold hands and celebrate the saviors birth." overlapping the standard lyric.Only the weakest songs and/or weaker of two versions were cut out.Buy this.
But the CD is good to have. This version is a normal version of Silent Night, nothing to be excited about. All the great songs are here, but I wanted the notable version of Silent Night and it wasn't here. Silent Night is here, but not the notable version.
Anytime you can get one CD of the Temptation's vocal stylings with the best of their previoussongs, you must have it. It brings meto an innocent time in history and inhances the Christmas holiday.
Buy this CD. In the terroristic times in which we live a little oldtime peace and comfort, especially from the Temptations is atruely precious thing.
I have both of the Temptations previously released Christmasrecordings. This CD is magic.
It's the best of 2 rolled into 1. I have also bought their newest release of classicTemptation Christmas selections.
I am a big fan of the Temptations andsee them as often as possible.
Nice collection if you don't have these CDs already. This recent offering is a combination of CHRISTMAS CARD and GIVE LOVE AT CHRISTMAS albums with Eddie Kendricks' "Hohoho.This is your Singing Santa." greeting from A MOTOWN CHRISTMAS CAROL on the first track. The previously unreleased, O HOLY NIGHT is from the post-1971 era.
