Notes & Personnel Info |  | Nothing says cozy homemaking (or a frightening attention to detail) like the name Martha Stewart, and this compilation of traditional Christmas tunes, an official entry in the MARTHA STEWART LIVING line, is as cozily inviting and meticulously constructed as one of her signature patterned quilts. What makes this compilation especially nice is that it mixes time periods and genres, hopping from country (Willie Nelson's "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town") to R&B (Luther Vandross's "This Is Christmas") to modern yuletide favorites (Nat King Cole's definitive version of "The Christmas Song"). Where else can you find Mariah Carey, Gene Autry, and Tony Bennett in one place crooning about wintry nights and good cheer? Whatever your opinion of Martha Stewart, you've got to hand it to her, she's got taste by the bowlful. | | |
