CHRISTMAS IS CALLING
Roch Voisine
(BMG)
I wasn't sure what to expect from this bilingual artist, having never totally dug his slick pop sound. But his low-key, mainly acoustic versions of Silent Night, I'll Be Home For Christmas, O Christmas Tree, Happy Christmas, The Christmas Song, Silver Bells, Blue Christmas and O Holy Night warmed me up. Too bad the over-production on White Christmas and Joy To The World, and saccharine versions of Winter Wonderland, Sleigh Ride and What Child Is This left me cold. This one's for my mom, who will probably love it.
