Logic would dictate that if Aaron Neville can't make it a soulful Christmas, nobody can. Neville's one of the only mere mortals who can actually deliver on the old saw about having a voice so sweet he could sing the phone book. Problem is that Neville, who is notorious for making the wrong career choices, probably would sing the phone book if someone signed the check. Consequently, even though he includes the typical standards on Soulful Christmas, they still ring true with his magical voice. "Such a Night" and "Louisiana Christmas Day," however, stand out with soul and are required additions to any funky holiday party mix. --Michael Ruby

An Angelic Voice for the Holidays December 5, 1998

From the opening strains of Charles Brown's "Please Come Home For Christmas" you know you're in for a treat as Aaron Neville turns it up a notch for this collection! The musical arrangements are also great, and the interesting re-working of "Such A Night" indeed turns it into a Christmas Classic!A nice combination of traditional hymns and carols , as well as the more popular holiday fare. The voice is the difference here, and it makes for on of my new holiday traditions!

I really look forward to this album for the holidays, definitely one of our favorites. That voice and a good collection of songs, including zydeco, give this CD a unique spot in our Christmas collection. From the first quietly chiming bells, I'm hooked.

Kept coming back to "What a Night" and "Lousianna Christmas Day". It cannot get better than this. The traditional Christmas Songs are sung perfectly in clear voice rendering heartfelt renditions. All in all this is a must have, terrific album. There is something for everyone. Not one bummer here.
Our Family's Favorite Christmas CD December 4, 2006

Wow, what a great Christmas CD. It has become traditional at our house to make this the first CD listened to as we unpack all of our Christmas decorations, and the last listened to as we finish repacking at the end of the season. We also like listening to this one after the kids have gone to bed and we feel like relaxing and experiencing the many faceted wonders of the Christmas season.
Aaron Neville voice is at times reverent, mellow, thoughtful, soulful, dreamy, and downright fun. He captures the many different moods we all feel throughout the Christmas season. The band is simply superb, as are the arrangements and sound mix. This CD has both traditional religious carols as well as fun seasonal songs.
We were blessed to see Aaron sing with Roberta Flack and Melissa Manchester in a "Colors of Christmas" concert some years back, and this CD brings back his spellbinding singing from the stage.
If you like a variety of Christmas music, this CD will likely become a favorite of yours, too.
