O’s Notes: The title gives you a hint but you’ll need to listen to this CD to get a full appreciation of how rich the Hammond can sound celebrating the music of Christmas. The sound is rich and full mirroring that of a church pipe organ at times. It is a unique and rich set of Holiday tunes, much more than just another Holiday album. All of the traditional songs, “Ave Maria”, “Greensleeves” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” to name a few, are included. The music is unobtrusive yet fulfilling.
