Great for Sinatraphiles, if not keep an open mind.......2006-10-24

This album is really a treat for those of us who can't get enough of Sinatra during the holidays. If you don't fall into that category, you may still enjoy it. The truth is, you probably know if you'll like it or not just by looking at it. I got it last year, after hearing some of the cuts from 2004's Christmas Collection. Some would contend that the best of SFWYAMC is sampled on that collection, but I feel the concept works better as a whole. I like the play between family members on the joint efforts, and most of the songs are pleasant. Most people think this is the definitive version of the Christmas Waltz and, although I disagree, I demur. Save this for last in your Sinatra C-mas purchase list, not because it's worse, but simply because if you don't like the others, you certainly won't like this. If you like Frank at the holidays, GET IT NOW, and make up your own mind. I recommend this cd.

This is a 24 Karat Gold CD, so it costs more than the average CD. I honestly can't notice any difference in sound quality between gold CDs and regular ones, but maybe that's just me. But gold CD is the only way this album is available, so it's that or nothing. It's a decent album, with Christmas songs by Frank Sinatra and his three kids. Three songs are sung by the whole family, with "I Wouldn't Trade Christmas" being the best one. Frank sings two songs, "Whatever Happened to Christmas?" and a remake of "The Christmas Waltz", both of which are very good. Nancy sings two songs, which are pretty good. Tina sings one song, which is okay. Tina actually sounds a lot like Nancy, but with an untrained voice. Nancy and Tina also sing a duet together, which kind of sounds like Nancy with her voice double tracked. And then there is Frank Jr., who sings the okay "O Bambino". This isn't the greatest Christmas album ever, but it's certainly passable, and Sinatra fans will probably enjoy it.

When I was a kid growing up my dad bought this album on 8-Track tape and I must have played it till the tape broke - O Bambino and The Twelve Days of Christmas just to name a couple - all of the songs are wonderful. I'm so glad I found it again, now my children can enjoy it too (Tradition!)

NANCY Shines On Christmas CD.......2002-11-28

This is a wonderful collection of Christmas Songs as sung by the members of the SINATRA clan. Nancy does a terrific job on her songsand is especially moving on the tune IT'S SUCH A LONELY TIME OF YEAR. She leads the way on songs such as O Bambino (a duet with Tina Sinatra, who does an ok job with her vocals). Frank Sr. of course sings well on THE CHRISTMAS WALTZ and Frank Jr. certainly does a fair job with SOME CHILDREN SEE HIM.But it is Nancy who really makes this CD worth adding to your Christmas CD Collection. It would be nice if Nancy would do a solo Christmas CD but for now, it is great that this CD has been issued.Listen and Enjoy!

Sinatra Family X-mas Available on CD.......2002-11-28

Being a Sinatra fan, I was delighted to find out that the long out of print Sinatra Family Christmas Album was available on CD.
Not your usual holiday fair, but nonetheless, a valuable gem for Sinatra fans. Standouts include Jimmy Webb's "Whatever Happened to Christmas" sung by Sinatra senior, "Its Such a Lonely Time of Year" sung by Nancy and "Some Children See Him", sung by Frank Jr. The songs sung by the family are also enjoyable. My least favorite is Cahn and Van Heusen's adaptation of "The 12 Days of Christmas". All and all a delightful holiday treasure for Sinatra fans.
