Title: 60% Classic Tunes
Product review: I must admit, I was skeptical when I saw the "NOW" series was putting out a Christmas collection. But I was pleasantly surprised at the song selection. In fact, just about every song on Disc 1, and the first four songs on Disc 2, qualify as true Christmas pop classics. About the only classic songs missing are "The Chipmunk Song" and Harry Simeone Chorale's "Little Drummer Boy". I can't think of another single Christmas CD that can top Disc 1's collection of classics. But once we hit Michael Bolton on Disc 2, the timeless quality evaporates. Yes, there are some good, more contemporary tunes, but they don't measure up to the long string of Christmas hits preceding them. Maybe time will tell if they acquire the beloved status that "White Christmas" and "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" have. I do recommend this collection, though, even if, like me, you end up playing the first disc at lot more than the second.
