The Muppet Christmas Carol
from: Walt Disney Records
: :For right-minded buyers of the reissued Muppet Christmas Carol soundtrack, the odds of disappointment are about as remote as Miss Piggy's chances with Kermit. If you loved the movie, you will love the loopy mayhem of the Muppet Brass Buskers ('Good King Wenceslas'), the cartoonish malice of the black-hearted misanthropes Marley & Marley ('Marley & Marley'), and the hope-swollen harmonies of Tiny Tim and Family ('Bless Us All'), Muppeted here to hilariously humble effect. If, on the other hand, your interest in this disc has more to do with its inclusion ...

Carreras · Domingo · Pavarotti: The Three Tenors in Concert / Mehta
from: Decca
: :Magic was created one starlit night in July 1990, when Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo and José Carreras met onstage at the Baths of Caracalla in Rome and became the Three Tenors. They eschewed competitive instincts and cooperated in the spirit of mutual admiration to create one of the greatest musical events ever. This concert is an awe-inspiring orgy of the greatest hits for the tenor voice. Domingo and Pavarotti sing perfectly. The audience wins as these vocal supermen compete to seduce the hearts of the audience. One moment Domingo brings thrilling ...

Christmas Extraordinaire
: :Chip Davis's Mannheim Steamroller hasn't lost any ground in the six years since their last Yuletide offering. Christmas Extraordinare is another innovative and heartfelt collection of seasonal treasures played on a combination of 18th-century instruments and modern-day synthesizers, drums, and electric guitars. While not the first to marry different ages of musical instruments, Davis and his cohorts use them with imagination and an intensity that gives new life and drama to this rather inert genre. For material, Mannheim Steamroller asked their fans to choose their favorite holiday selections and vote on ...
