Christmas Cocktails, Vol. 2 is an entertaining but unspectacular collection of classic carols performed in a lounge fashion. For connoisseurs of kitsch, it's an entertaining disc, but other listeners might find the camp a little too much to take. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

As the title implies, the songs on this 18-song compilation were intended for bachelors who wanted to create a suitably suave atmosphere between the mid-'50s and mid-'60s. So although the music draws from jazz (both big band and cool), lounge pop, and film/TV soundtracks, it's primarily designed to set a mood or ...

In 1996, at the height of the lounge music craze, Capitol Records assembled the first Ultra-Lounge Christmas Cocktails collection. The label, founded in Los Angeles in 1942 to take advantage of the emerging solo singer trend that overtook the swing big bands, had an appropriate catalog for such an album, which was duly filled with vintage recordings of holiday standards sung by such long-term Capitol signees as Peggy Lee, Lou Rawls, Dean Martin, Nancy Wilson, and Nat King Cole. The album must have been a success, since Capitol returned a year later with Ultra-Lounge Christmas Cocktails, Pt. 2, which added the likes of Lena Horne and Wayne Newton to many returning performers. Alas, lounge music passed as a popular style, and the series lapsed until, for whatever reason, Capitol revived it in 2004, packaging the two previously released albums with a third disc and issuing it as the three-CD set Ultimate Christmas Cocktails. A year later, that third disc has been separated out and released on its own for the first time. The campy aspect of lounge is apparent immediately as Sammy Davis, Jr. duets with Carmen McRae on Frank Loesser's song of weather-impacted seduction, "Baby, It's Cold Outside" (not exactly a Christmas song, it's true, but no matter). Davis, apparently determined ...

A double entendre involving his hometown and Marilyn Manson in the title isn't just the first thing that jumps out when listening to this latest Cex offering, his second of 2003. Like Being Ridden or 2001's Oops, I Did It Again!, the dark messy side of Rjyan Kidwell comes out straight away with the screaming near-horrorcore of "Drive Off a Mountain," before venturing into territory that was silently boiling under and slightly alluded to in most of his other work. Gone is the good-time kid-around vibe that is the hallmark of Cex's live performances, and in its place is a man troubled with his own identity and the identities of those around him. All but abandoning ...
