"Etta James singing "Please Come Home For Christmas" is fabulous. Earl Klugh & Stefan Dickerson do a great job on "We Three Kings". There are no bad songs on this CD, just good smooth jazz. Very definitely holiday mood music.There are no liner notes to speak of, so I don't have much more information than this. The CD is 45 minutes long. Some songs have no vocals. All the selections are from Windham Hill.Here's the song listing and artists:1) Feliz Navidad (Spyro Gyro)2) This Christmas (Jeffrey Osborne)
3) The Gift of Your Love (Tom Scott)
4) We Three Kings (Earl Klugh & Stefan Dickerson)
5) Spirit of the Season (Hiroshima)
6) Santa Lucia (Ray Obiedo)
7) Please Come Home For Christmas (Etta James)
8) I'll Be Home For Christmas (Tom Grant)
9) It's That Time Of Year (Double Scale)
10) Magic (Chieli Minucci)Some of these songs appear on at least one other CD, Jazz Noel, so you might want to check your collection. If you like contemporary jazz, this is a worthwhile CD. I'd take away a star for the lack of liner notes, but I'd have to give it back because of the great price."
Didn't enjoy it

"I was disappointed. I did not like any of the cuts on this CD. I don't really know why. It was just not enjoyable. Also, there are 10 cuts listed on this CD. There were, actually, only 8 songs on the one that I have. I don't know what happened to the other 2 cuts. There were just not there."
