Customer Reviews CRYSTAL GAYLE IN HER CHRISTMAS BEST! Crystal Gayle's voice is as mellow as it can be. This is one christmas album that is truly worth keeping. Her voice is simply amazing!!. This is our Family's favorite Xmas CD Every year as our family is decorating the Xmas tree, we vote for the first Xmas CD to be played, and it is always this one. Crystal Gayle's rendition of these truly favorite Xmas classics is one of the best. We are only sorry that Crystal has not done any other Xmas CD's. An album of traditional songs from this great talent Many of my friends thought her style was all akin to the DON'T IT MAKE MY BROWN EYES BLUE sound. Crystal Gayle is known to many but not to enough. Alas, not only is Crystal Gayle's talent so much beyond that, but in this work- a collection of beautiful and traditional Christmas songs- her smooth vocals and eloquent enunciations put the finishing touches on songs that will never sound the same to you again. Once you hear the songs, all joined together by choice in varying melody, you will want to hear it again and again. I have made copies of this tape for so many of my friends and family. Some love the way she does certain songs, such as THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY; others love what she DOES with certain songs, such as HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS. The usual response I hear is, "Wow, I didn't know she could sing like that!". Beyond her range and dramatic ability, however, the album exemplifies her golden, lush, smooth voice. She can melt you like ice cream on a July day, and what's more, the selection of songs is something that especially children will warm to and love. On the other hand, Crystal grew up and recorded in days when artists didn't pour sixty minutes into an album. As a result, these selections go very fast if you're watching the clock. Granted, Christmas songs are sometimes short to begin with; so, perhaps I've always been left with wanting just a bit more. But that's the price you pay when you find someone this talented: you cannot get enough!!. . You can see a complete list of all Crystal Gayle discography, or go back to the Crystal Gayle tabs
