5 stars GORGEOUS!!!!!
I had 'the Joy of Christmas' on vinyl LP years ago and am absolutely dewlighted to see rthat it is available on CD. Of all the several dozen Chrristmas albums I had on vinyl this one was my absolute favorite. A gorgeous performance of the "Nutcracker Suite" as well. You positively cannot go wrong by acquiring this album.

5 stars I LOVE This Album!
This is my all time favorite Christmas album, and one I have been listening to since it first came out. I am delighted to find that I can now buy it in CD format as the old LP is pretty scratchy from the wear and tear of the years. This is classic Christmas music at its best.

Percy Faith Music Of Christmas CD  (1954)

Joy Of Christmas
CD $8.69  3.8 stars Audio Samples
One of the classic easy listening Christmas albums, 1966's MUSIC OF CHRISTMAS is perennially one of Percy Faith's most popular albums. Unlike Faith's later CHRISTMAS IS album, which included several vocal tracks, the 14 tracks on MUSIC OF CHRISTMAS are completely instrumental full-orchestra arrangements of some glorious Christmas songs, from the usual suspects-"Deck the Halls," "Joy to the World," etc.-to a batch of more obscure gems like the English carols "The Holly and the Ivy" and "Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming." The CD remastering job is excellent, and the music is first-rate orchestral easy listening. Highly recommended to all easy listening fans, though admittedly non-fans might find it a bit soppy. Arranger: Percy Faith.

Israel Iz Kamakawiwo'Ole Alone In Iz World CD  (2001)

Joy Of Christmas
CD $13.29  4.2 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
While the name Israel Kamakawiwo'ole falls trippingly off few tongues, the Hawaiian singer better known as "Iz" was one of the biggest stars in his home state. Iz first came to public attention as a member of the popular Hawaiian group known as the Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau. His subsequent solo career brought even greater fame, and countless fans were saddened at his untimely death in 1997. Those who mourn his passing will be gladdened by the posthumous release of ALONE IN IZ WORLD, compiled from various recording session outtakes. While one might expect a big, deep sound to emanate from a gargantuan-sized body like that of Iz, the hefty singer actually possessed a gorgeous, fragile tenor voice full of tenderness and delicacy. That voice is put to use here on tunes that alternate between voice-and-ukelele solo performances (Iz was no slouch on the uke) and more fully arranged tunes enhanced after the singer's death. Whether crooning in his native tongue or in English, Iz cuts right through to the heart of the listener with his pure, emotive tone. Contains an untitled hidden track after "In This Life." Recorded in Hawaii. Includes liner notes by Jon De Mello. Personnel includes: Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (vocals, ukulele); Mel Amina, Barry Flanagan (guitar). This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
