    5.0 out of 5 stars Another Mannheim Steamroller Fan, December 11, 2000
    By 
    This review is from: Christmas in the Aire (Audio CD)
    Well to start I can't possibly beat what the music fan from St. Louis said, this is a great CD, possibly Mannheim Steamrollers best Christmas CD. You can't go wrong with any of their Chrismas CDs. What is well said by the earlier fan is that it is unique. So much Christmas music has been pumped out that it starts to run together after you hear it enough. Don't get me wrong I'll always love hearing Nat King Cole croon about "chestnuts roasting on an open fire...". I started listening to Mannheim Steamroller in 1982 when I heard Fresh Aire III played in a music store. I have been a fan since. When they started releasing Christmas albums I recommended them to all my friends and family because they had appeal for anyone of any age group. If you don't have any of their Christmas CDs try this one for sure. And if you don't have this Mannheim CD, get it!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of great tunes, January 3, 2005

    Mannheim Steamroller is the brainchild of Chip Davis, and is a fusion of classic music with high-tech pop. Mannheim Steamroller burst on the scene in 1974, with their Fresh Aire album. This album came out in 1995, and is a good, solid addition to their collection. Having such classics as Joy to the World and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, it is pleasant to listen to, with their rendition of Joy being a new Christmas classic.

    Now, some can argue as to which album of Mannheim Steamroller is better. As for myself, I thought that their 1984 Christmas album was the best. But, that said, this is a very nice Mannheim Steamroller Christmas album, with lots of great tunes. It makes for nice, relaxing mood music, and goes along excellently as background music for a party. My family and I love this album, and do not hesitate to recommend it to you.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas is in the Aire!, November 20, 2000

    This review is from: Christmas in the Aire (Audio CD)
    I seem to write pretty good reviews if I talk about the album track-by-track so here goes:

    1. Joy to the World: One of the most upbeat adaptations of this great song! This version will lift your spirits and warm your soul.

    2. Joseph Dear Oh Joseph Mine: A relaxing track with a great flute solo.

    3. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: Not perfect, but it's pretty good rendition and kids will like it.

    4. Herbei, oh ihr Glaubigen (O Come All Ye Faithful): Beautiful melodious version which includes the superb Bielefelder Kinderchor of Germany. Definitley one of the reasons to buy this CD.

    5. Pat A Pan: Another flute passage, the longest track, and generally pretty good.

    6. O' Little Town of Bethlehem: Nice version of the traditional song. Perfect for getting little ones to sleep (that's a compliment).

    7. Angels We Have Heard On High: The best track on the album, with its upbeat trumpet passages and wonderful harmonies, this will get anyone in the Christmas mood!

    8. Gagliarda:... Read more
