Review title: Botti's weakest effort
Product review: As a big fan of Chris Botti and of Christmas music, I was quite disappointed in this album. There is a certain lack of cohesiveness, and the vocals are, well, to put it nicely, not very good.Interpretations of standards are never easy, particularly when translating from voice to instrument; but more often than not-it just doesn't work here. Some of Botti's more recent efforts have astounded me with gentle intricacy and positive energy. This album sounds like a demo that hasn't had the kinks worked out yet.Aside from the issue with the vocals, there are misplaced sounds and synths that are out of time. Beats are missed and a few gaping gaffes in production.I really debated between two and three stars, but in the end I went with two because Botti fans will buy it regardless, but newbies may buy it and be left with a disappointed impression of him. This is really recomended only for fans. I hope he does another album of holiday music and finishes it next time.
