Product DescriptionNot since Dean Martin & Bing Crosby has anyone come close to delivering on a record from start to finish like Royal Wade Kimes has with "Snow." The record is a marvel, the vocal astounding, and the CD a joy, a true Christmas joy. Most Holiday season records are nice, but this effort by Royal Wade Kimes comes with heart, has feeling, has soul, and power. The kind of power to put you in a mood, from the very first cut, Royal Wade Kimes can take you to a wonderful place within yourself. This record has something most recording artist can only dream about having one day. The overpowering unrehearsed emotion to make old Christmas standards feel new again, and powerful enough to make the toughest of men hide a falling tear. Royal Wade was asked his thoughts on the CD. "I wanted to make a record that would cause people to feel, to remember, to hold that special one and maybe pour a cup of coffee, curl up near the fireplace and forget the world and its troubles for a little while. It is my hope this record reminds us there is hope." Kimes wrote only one song for the record, an exceptional up-tempo "Mistletoe" proving he can write to the same level he can sing. This may be the best Christmas record for years to come.
