Queen reigns January 9, 2007 EA Prisywhig (Ohio) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As an Aretha aficionado, I enjoy 99.9% of everything she does. Girlfriend could sing the phone book to me and I'd be thrilled. This Holiday collection is nice...not all songs are related to the Season. Her duet with Mavis Staples is excellent and of course her Winter Wonderland is a classic. If anyone wants something a little different for the Holidays, this could be a nice CD as an alternative to what's on your normal playlist.
Oh Happy Day!!! November 12, 2008 Ramblin' Fox (Philadelphia) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Well, this is an interesting compilation... make no mistake this CD was NOT a project. This is strictly a Sony compilation from Sony's vault... Actually the Christmas songs on this CD can be had on many other CD's that are currently out there. However, Aretha & Mavis Staple singing "Oh Happy Day" together is worth the price of admission!!! That's the gem on this compilation. AFter listening to that, I mailed my church my tithes!!!Also, "Over the Rainbow" sounds like a young Patti Labelle singing instead of Aretha. Aretha may be playing the piano, but it's DEFINITELY Patti vocals... Why Patti wasn't credit in the insert is befuddling... Patti, Sony just may owe you a check!!
A True Gem December 14, 2008 30 Book A Month Reader (Ohio) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Every once in a while you will come across a book, a cd, a picture, that just makes you thrilled to be alive to experience it. Cut No. 2 - "Oh, Happy Day" performed on this cd by Aretha Franklin and Mavis Staples - is one of those songs. This emotional, soulful, joyful rendition of Edwin Hawkins' 70's song will have you on your feet, hand in the air, palm up, singing and rejoicing in being alive to hear it. What an experience! The cd would be worth twice the money just for that one song; however, the other songs on the cd are also very worthwhile. It is really not a Xmas cd despite a few old standbys. It is more a compilation of some unusual cuts by Aretha, who was in her glory days - voice rich, full of soul and talent. The Queen at her best. Don't miss it.

What can you say, but simply fantastic! Can't imagine a holiday without her music.
The Queen for Christmas! November 26, 2007 Katchy 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Aretha's take on "Joy to the world" is one of the best I've heard. It is exactly what you would expect from her. I can never understand what makes her tick, but I guess that is what genius is. I've collected all these songs over the years on separate issues, but it's very nice to finally have them all on one disc.
