| "Let It Snow (2003) ... Michael Buble ... Reprise Records (re-release 2007)" | |
|  | My wife and I were fortunate enough to see Michael in a St. Louis concert, met him back stage, told us he had just recorded this album back in November of 2003 and was very proud of the result. Might add this young man made a very positive impression on all who attended that night's show --- he's a first class guy and has everything going for him --- couldn't happen to a nicer person.
Pop vocalist of the millennium is Michael Buble, with shades of Connick, Darin, Sinatra and Torme, all rolled into one nice neat package (and that's the plain truth). Just in time for the holidays Buble has re-released "Let It Snow!", featuring an unforgettable youthful style that takes you back to Christmas' of long, long ago --- Listening to this five track compact disc, brings back memories of Bing Crosby in "Holiday Inn", where Bing first sang the Irving Berlin classic song of these special times "WHITE CHRISTMAS".
Then we have "THE CHRISTMAS SONG (CHESTNUTS ROASTING ON AN OPEN FIRE)", composed by Mel Torme/Robert Wells and debuted by Nat "King" Cole (one of the greatest entertainers of all time), but Michael nails this classic tune with his own signature and makes it his very own.
"LET IT SNOW!", wonderful arrangement by Johnny Mandel, as Buble sings the white stuff is coming down in big flakes. "GROWN-UP CHRISTMAS LIST", beautiful almost music box tune written by David Foster (producer of this album), the verse brings a tear to your eye as Michael pours his heart out, this track alone is worth the price of the album.
But my all time favorite popular Christmas song is "I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS", this chokes my wife up, cause when I served in the Navy couldn't be with her that one Christmas, every time she hears this song it all comes back, Buble takes the David Foster and Jeremy Lubbock arrangement along with heartfelt lyrics and brings it home, just listen quietly and see if you don't agree --- Let It Snow offers holiday greetings for the yuletide days --- The EP was reissued in 2007 with a bonus live version of the title track.
SPECIAL FEATURES: [BONUS TRACK] EP 1 Let It Snow. Let It Snow. Let It Snow [2:05] 2 The Christmas Song [4:15] 3 Grown-Up Christmas List 3:41] 4 I'll Be Home for Christmas [3:39] 5 White Christmas [3:59] [Bonus] 6 Let It Snow. Let It Snow. Let It Snow Live [2:24]
Finally a singer under the age of 50 who actually listens to the lyrics he's singing and interprets them in a unique way --- Buble has a rich, smooth, beautiful voice that givesthese songs a new dimension --- And his diction...wow, there's a concept --- Listen to "Grown Up Christmas List" and you'll see what I mean --- Just in time for the holidays a true gem for any Christmas collection.
Total Time: 20 mins on 6 Tracks ~ Reprise Records ~ (10/16/2007)
