The sounds of the four freshmen cushion these holiday favorites like a soft blanket of snow. The harmonies are smooth and light, an easy and mellow feeling, never blaring, deceptively conceal the exacting organization and tightness of the ensemble, as they add exhilarating takes on "White Christmas" and "I'll Be Home For Christmas."
These songs are all buoyant, happy songs of faith and sentiment, and the Four Freshmen display a brightness of spirit and affectionate camaraderie that deepens the messages of the timeless "The First Noel." The tracks range from the comedy voice caricatures and up-tempo jazz phrasing instrumentals of the "Freshmas!" medley, to the soft and sweet delivery of "We Three Kings," full of extended notes and placid flugelhorn.
The Four Freshmen, in their warm virtuosity, fill this holiday album with tenderness and felicity, as well as their usual high standards of musicianship and technique.

The Four Freshmen are in their element on this CD, where they are accompanied by the brash, brassy sounds of Stan Kenton's Orchestra. Both the Freshmen and Kenton's music relies on a doubling-or quadrupling-up of voices or horns to fashion a great wall of sound that over the decades has never ceased to thrill listeners.

| | Hard To Find 45'S On CD, Vol. 2: 1961-64 CDs (1996)
Freshmas! album
$12.85 
The second installment of the Hard to Find 45's series is, like the first, a wide assortment of Top 40 hits, some of them indeed very hard to find on CD or even hear on the radio. Some of them are not really that hard to find on CD, though this disc (like every one in this series) takes pains to present original 45 RPM single versions, often in stereo. Whereas the first volume was devoted to material from 1955-1960, this goes into the next era (1961-1964), and though it's pretty pop-inclined, there's a good deal of diversity. There's doo wop verging on soul by the Stereos ("I Really Do Love You," the Flares' "Foot Stompin'," Clyde McPhatter's "Lover Please"), girl-sung teen idol pop (Little Peggy March's "I Will Follow Him," Marcie Blane's "Bobby's Girl"), the poppiest brand of girl group sounds ...

Sir Winston Churchill once said, “The price of greatness is responsibility.” Tony James’ music, life, and lyrics epitomize Churchill’s statement. Born Duane A. Staples, Tony James grew up in a musical family. He is a distant relative to the famed Staple Singers, his father has been a DJ for more than 20 years, and his uncle Larry plays the guitar with a skill that evokes the memory of the great Jimmie Hendrix. Despite moving between homes at an early age after his parents divorced, music remained a constant in James’ life. His mother enrolled him in piano lessons while he was in elementary school to keep him away from the negative influences that surrounded him. This early foray into music became a key building block to James’ innovative and mesmerizing sound. After high school, James pursued his dream of playing Division I football at the University of Maryland. Football did not work out and Tony James found himself writing rhymes instead ...
