Here Willie sings the traditional Christmas songs , but his voice makes it feel like he is right there by the tree singing to you in person . Very relaxing . Hope to meet him in person some day , Any Willie fan will love this Cd .

Willie Nelson almost needs no introduction; he has been performing for decades and he has released yet another wonderful album! This CD has nothing but excellent holiday music and I couldn't agree more with the reviewer who writes that it feels as if he's singing every song special just for you. It's really a great CD; and the sound quality is excellent."A Dreamer's Holiday" has a charming melody and Willie sings this flawlessly. It's a great start to the album! The Irving Berlin standard "White Christmas" has Willie playing just a little bit with the tempo and keys to put his own stamp on it; and it all holds its own very well. "Here Comes Santa Claus" is a playful tune with a creative musical arrangement that fits in well with Willie Nelson's vocals and "Jingle Bells" gets a fine treatment from Willie! "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" gets a fine treatment as again Willie plays a bit with tempo and keys to make it his own and "Winter Wonderland" is awesome.The other great tracks include "Frosty the Snowman" which I could never tire of hearing when Willie does it; the beautiful "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town;" "Pretty Paper" with that country flavor to it; a fine rendition of "Blue Christmas" that would certainly make Elvis smile; "Christmas Blues" with yet another fantastic musical arrangement; the classic "O Little Town Of Bethlehem" that Willie delivers without letting go of a single superfluous note; a beautiful "Away in a Manger" and "Joy to the World" that have Bobbie Nelson performing along with Willie; the joyful "What a Wonderful World" that has always been one of my very favorite ballads and the CD ends with Willie Nelson performing "Silent Night, Holy Night." It leaves me wanting more!Willie Nelson fans should consider this a must-have for their collections; and anyone who appreciates five star holiday Christmas music would do well to get this, too. The more casual fan can choose to download just the MP3 sound files that they want; but I still suggest they get the entire album on CD; this music is all THAT good. Thank you for yet another excellent album, Willie Nelson!

I've not yet listened to this, but don't need to to know this is a great album - I can tell because 12 of the 16 tracks are from the Willie Nelson Christmas Album I've owned for years, "Pretty Paper." When I saw the album listed, I did not think to check the tracks, I just knew it would be good; for those of you who also own "Pretty Paper" on CD, hopefully this saved you a few dollars for an alternate album.
