Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Not as good as the reviews Comment: After reading the reviews that 'i thought' were quite helpfull, i found the album to be of satisfactory standard. maybe it might be because of my age (i am in my twenty's) but i only knew a handfull of the artists on the album, and even then only about 3 of the songs would be what i call 'proper' christmas songs! i.e The Pogues. Im afraid i wont be recommending it to any one, im just glad i only paid less than £3 for it! Customer Rating: Summary: Not "Truly the best" yes alternative Comment: Reading the previous two reviews, I was won over and decided to purchase this cd, its starts off well with The Pogues (in my opinion) there are one or two mediocre tunes in the middle of the cd. To be truthful I stopped at track 11 "Xmas in February" which is about Vietnam, it looks like the cd ends on a strong note with Otis Redding's White Christmas & Booker T's Winter Wonderland. Customer Rating: Summary: Truly the best alternative Christmas album Comment: I was thrilled to buy this CD from Amazon a few years ago, having worn out my copy on cassette. There are well-known standards (Kirsty and The Pogues' 'Fairytale') here mixed with lesser known gems, but everything is well worth the listen. Stina Nordenstam's ethereal voice is totally suited to Christmas songs, whilst Tom Waits' bass growl is perfect for his tale of a jailed hooker. Everyone who has heard this CD has said "Wow, that's great. Where did you track that down?" Customer Rating: Summary: Forget the rest, this truly is the best..... Comment: I've owned this album for nearly 8 years and every Christmas it gives me immense pleasure to listen to it. Creating more and more memories as time passes. There are no tacky 'wedding disco' type tracks only unusual, if not classic yuletide tunes. Everyone who hears me playing this, begs to know more. Amazon are diamonds in coming up with the goods at last. A real gem of a CD, previously very hard to get hold of. Thank you! More Reviews
