This is an Enhanced audio CD, which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.

All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.

Though it contains only three compositions penned by the singer, Jewel's yuletide album JOY: A HOLIDAY COLLECTION still manages to sound like a wholly original set of songs. This is due in large part to the singer's ability to modulate the texture of her voice, a technique that she will occasionally call upon several times within the space of a single song.

One example is Jewel's country-flavored rendering of "Winter Wonderland," which benefits from pedal steel guitar and a shuffling, rootsy beat. Jewel blends a light scat/yodeling melange, sultry and plummy diva-like crooning, and an airy and wispy vocal timbre not far from that of Dolly Parton. The more straightforward "Joy to the Word" benefits from warm strings and a piquant, well-placed lute. As one might expect, the take on "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" is a jocular affair, as Jewel mixes her sprightly vocal part amongst a bevy of choir voices. Jewel originals include the Latin-sung "Gloria" and a special Christmas version of the uplifting "Hands," a track that originally appeared on her SPIRIT album. As the song suggests, in Jewel's world, "only kindness matters."

5 stars Beautiful music
I absolutely love this CD. It is so beautiful. It is very acoustic, but not weird, like some renditions of christmas songs. I think this is a must for any christmas CD

4 stars One of the best pop artist Christmas albums I've ever heard.
Beautifully arranged, undoubtably the best pop artist Christmas recordings since the earliest days of popular music. She sings the most popular songs that we all have known our whole lives with respect to their traditional arrangements without putting a new, unwelcome, pop-sounding spin on the old classics. Superlative use of strings, guitar, and vocals. A real pleasure.

M.E.
