| | Time-Life Treasury Of Christmas CD (4 Customer Reviews)
If you want that old-fashioned holiday feeling of spending Christmas in your grandparents' house while they pull out some of their favorite Yuletide LPs and play them on a well-worn phonograph (that's for records, kids), THE TIME-LIFE TREASURY OF CHRISTMAS is here to help. This two-disc collection is based around well known Christmas recordings by some of the biggest crooners of the pre-rock era. The original smoothie Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" is as unassailable as it is ubiquitous. Ella Fitzgerald sounds just as transcendent singing "Jingle Bells" as she did on any other tune she ever tackled. Even when Elvis Presley pops up, rock & roll is eschewed in favor of the lovelorn Christmas anthem "Blue Christmas."

| | Britney Spears Britney CD (2001)
Time-Life Treasury Of Christmas
$8.99 
BRITNEY was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Album. "Overprotected" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
Well, the question is no longer whether she's a little girl or a woman--Britney Spears has obviously been the latter for some time. The question now is how long she'll be able to pretend at keeping us guessing, and how long we'll pretend not to know the answer. With BRITNEY she continues the dance of corrupted youth and innocence to the delight of both her female fans and dirty old and young men everywhere.
While it's by no means the best song on the album, the ballad "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman" typifies her commercial appeal (interestingly, though she writes several songs here, this one was written for her). The songs that ring truest here are those penned by Spears herself, such as the Chic-influenced "Anticipating" ...

Johanne Blouin has seen the light and shifted from pop to the more challenging and artistically rewarding jazz music. The French-Canadian singer has chosen a program of familiar material including classics, obligatory tunes by Joni Mitchell, and a Shirley Eikhard original. Her inaugural is made more auspicious by the company she keeps. Each sideman is a top of the list jazz craftsman and takes a turn sharing the spotlight. The interplay between Bobby Watson and Blouin on "You Don't Know What Love Is" stimulates performers and listeners. Watson's ending tremolos are a striking coda to an exceptional interpretation. The muted horn of Terell Stafford works behind Blouin on "My Funny Valentine" much the way Harry Sweets Edison worked his magic with ...
