Free Music Notes for Time-Life Music: Treasury of Christmas - Holiday Memories
Free Music Review: An outstanding Compilation of Seasonal Songs!
Hit: 5 Stars
I have to say I'm kind of addicted to Christmas music, usually beginning to play it each year in August. I always make it a point to try and add 2-3 CDs per year to my collection. This happens to be one of my favorite seasonal collections. It has a great range of songs and artists, from Bing Crosby to the Beach Boys to the Chipmunks. Although this is a two CD version of a larger compilation from Time-Life that was advertised for years on TV it still provides plenty of seasonal music to enjoy.
Some of my favorites included here is Eartha Kitt's "Santa Baby" (a much better version that Madonna's more recent attempt), Burl Ives "A Holly Jolly Christmas", The Drifters version of "White Christmas", and one of my all time favorites, Bing Crosby & David Bowie's "Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy" which was recorded for Crosby's final Christmas special just a few weeks before his death.
This is a outstanding collection, one I would recommend highly to anyone looking for a variety of Christmas music all in one set of CDs. Happy listening and Merry Christmas!

I enjoy Méhdi"Christmas Treasures",Charlie Brown Christmas ,Mannheim Steamroller etc.and this a magnificent production that I also enjoy just as much. Time-Life Treasury of Christmas: Holiday Memories collects 24 classic tracks of the holiday genre spread out over two discs, including "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" by Nat King Cole, "Santa Baby" by Eartha Kitt, "Jingle Bell Rock" by Bobby Helms, "I Believe in Father Christmas" by Greg Lake, and "Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy" by Bing Crosby and David Bowie. Many of these artists will appeal to a broad range of ages, making it perfect for family gatherings.

This CD is a "must-have" in anyone's Holiday music collection because it contains practically every "classic" version of your Holiday favorites. There is even the almost impossible to find " Little Drummer Boy" duet by Bing Crosby and David Bowie for that all important "where did you find that?" cachet at your Holiday Party. Heck, it will make you feel cool on a 95 degree day! The sound quality is amazingly good considering that some of the songs were recorded decades before the digital age.Free Music Review: Wonderful!

I am a music lover and to me and my family the Christmas season is a time that the joyful and heartfelt music of the time should be heard from near and far, this collection fits the bill to do just that. In it you will find so many songs that you grew-up with and hearing them will touch a cord in your heart and bring to memory the joy of the season. I highly recommend this collection and hope you will be as enriched with it as my family is. Merry Christmas!Free Music Review: Bringing back wonderful memories

I have owned this previously through Time Life (some of you know what can happen when you are moving) and so I wanted to purchase it again and did when I found it here on Amazon. These are priceless original Christmas songs by the original artists and the sounds are simply superb! This is a must have for those who want to remember old traditions and for those who want to make new ones.
