CD Reviews

#1 Christmas guitar recording

Robert G. Leroe | Saugus, MA USA | 11/01/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Finally Charlie Byrd's solo guitar carols are on CD! I had the LP and it inspired me to learn to play carols on my guitar. There are many solo guitar Christmas recordings, but this is the best--in fact, one of the best Christmas music recording, period! It sounds like someone's sitting in the corner, quietly playing. Though Byrd is known for jazz & bossa nova, he plays it straight, without fancy ornamentation. I heard Byrd in Annapolis years ago, and he was an outstanding musician. This is simply a wonderful recording."

BEST CHRISTMAS CD OUT THERE!

"A Army buddy in Germany had this and I always loved it, but never could find it there, before I got shipped out. When I got back from Vietnam I drove clear to Denver to buy the LP. I thought it was the best Christmas record I had ever heard. I think there are two cd's out now, so get them both, you won't be sorry! I gave them to my sons also."

I will never tire of this, even if it is 4th of July.

"Charlie Byrd's mello guitar sounds bring the best feelings of Christmas to me. I carry it with me from the car to the house so when I am feeling the holiday is all too commercial, I listen to this CD and remember what Christmas really is. Of course, the fact that I love Charlie Bryd's music may have something to do with this. Best Christmas albumn ever."
