| | Johnny Mathis For Christmas CD Johnny Mathis Discography of CDs
For Christmas is a latter-day holiday album from Johnny Mathis. Since it was recorded during the '80s, the production techniques aren't as warm and inviting as his classic '50s and '60s recordings; it isn't quite as endearing, even if his voice has lost very little of its famous smooth suppleness. For dedicated fans, it's worth hearing, but only after they've exhausted his Christmas records from the '50s, '60s and '70s. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

For Christmas songs
$10.69
When a record buyer filters through an artist's catalog, it is likely that any disc with the words "B-sides" and/or "rarities" printed on it will automatically be dismissed as a record company's attempt to make money on stale, leftover songs. However, there are instances in which a surplus collection, like Andy Williams' B-Sides and Rarities, can stand on its own merit and reveal some terrific songs or performances that simply got lost in the shuffle. Most of the songs dusted off for this disc are from Williams' peak years at Columbia Records, where for a decade he cranked out an amazing 14 Top Ten albums on the Billboard chart. The two exceptions open the disc as Andy and his brothers back Kay Thompson on the late-'40s big band hits "Louisiana Purchase" and "Jubilee." While these songs are fun and reflective of Thompson's innovative nightclub act with the Williams Brothers, they seem out of place when immediately followed by Andy's suave solo voice on 1962's bouncing waltz "Help Me." Being nominated for an Academy Award was not enough to get A-side consideration for the gorgeous "The Peking Theme (So Little Time)" from the film 55 Days at Peking. The simplicity of Dimitri Tiomkin's melody along with Williams' tender vocals ...
| | Billy Martin Turntable Sessions, Vol. 1 CD (2004)
For Christmas album
$13.25
In 2001, Billy Martin launched a series of live performances called Turntable Sessions. The basic idea of the program, which was held at various clubs in Lower Manhattan, was for a hip-hop DJ to interact with different musicians, including Martin himself -- and those in attendance have been treated to what is basically a series of unorthodox, experimental jam sessions. Recorded from 2001-2003, The Turntable Sessions, Vol. 1 offers some of the highlights of the drummer's series and includes appearances by keyboardist John Medeski (as in Medeski, Martin & Wood), tenor saxophonist Marty ...
| | Ian Dickson Love Music & The Road CD (2006)
For Christmas CD music
$16.45
Ian Dickson is a singer/songwriter, and guitar player living in Texas. Ian was born in Dunfermline Scotland, and came to Texas by way of Canada, Ohio, and Michigan. After spending a few years playing with Shenango, an acoustic folk/pop band in Cleveland in the 70's, Ian formed Pine Creek in 1977. Pine Creek took their own brand of "Bluegrass and Beyond" to regional success on the club circuit in Midwest. Ian is currently writing and performing in Northeast Texas where he took top honors in the 2005 Wildflower performing songwriter competition. Ian has opened for several Texas music icons including Ray Wylie Hubbard, Brave Combo and Gary P. Nunn. Ian also serves on the board of directors for the Dallas Songwriters Association.__Buddy Magazine Review Posted: Aug 30, 2006 Record ReviewLove, Music & the RoadOn “Beer On My Guitar” Ian Dickson sings “Don’t tell me how much you had to drink, son. Just don’t spill your beer on my guitar”. While that’s not the point of his CD, Love, Music & the road, it shows the maturity of his outlook.Dickson, now a Texan by way of Dunfermline, Scotland; Canada; Ohio; and Michigan sings of, well, as the title indicates, love, music, and the road. He also explores traditions, small towns, and outlaws, and the musician’s life --- many of the same subjects younger performers explore too, but Dickson’s been there, done as much of that as he wants to and has moved on to wiser takes.It’s a musically mature, sincere, well done CD from a performer who would fit in at any folk festival in the country.He wrote ten or the 11 songs and covers Ray Wylie Hubbard’s inspirational “The Messenger”Dickson, who co-produced with Patrick McGuire, did all the lead vocals, with harmony help from Beth Wood. Milo Deering added pedal steel, mandolin, dobro, and fiddle; Warren Dewey drums; and McGuire bass.Tom GeddieBuddy MagazineAugust, 2006 ____ Miss Lana Review Posted: Aug 30, 2006 It was just before Christmas 2005, my husband and I decided to take the kids on a rare night out to Love and War in Texas. We knew it was Randy Hopper’s Singer/Songwriter night, so the whole family would be content at the very least to hear Randy and eat fried pickles and onion rings for a while. The evening kicked off with our buddy doing what he does so well.Several performers later our kids were ready to go. The other young performers had been fine, but frankly, I can’t even remember who they were. As we began to pack up, the next performer stepped up. We decided to listen to a tune or two before leaving. As he began to play and sing we were mesmerized!! This was my first taste of Ian ...
