Bundle up...light the fire...and start the eggnog! It's time for a season of celebration with Christmas Cookies, the new Christmas collection from the legendary Oak Ridge Boys. Yuletide carols, seasonal anthems and catchy, humorous medleys sung with their unmistakable four-part harmonies will warm your home during this most wonderful time of the year!
Just when you thought the Oak Ridge Boys were all out of acorns, something whimsical and significant this way comes. These long standing kings of main street country have wrapped up a great little package of holiday merry making that will draw chuckles and occasionally dampen eyes. The title track explains why one guy savors his wifeโs Christmas cookies all year long (a fattening recipe for a happy marriage, in other words), and "Uncle Luther Make the Stuffin'" is a good old novelty tune about the family gathered a little too comofrtably for the holiday. Of course they flirt with the maudlin on a few tracks (how can you not at this most sentimental time of the year?). But even those tracks--especially "Ordinary Days" that sounds like a well crafted Jimmy Buffet tune written for a movie version for "Tuesdays with Morrie"--sound right at home next to the Christmas classics like "O Come All Ye Faithful" and "Jingle Bells," played here in hoedown time with dobros, guitars and fiddles a-blazing. In the familiar harmonies of the four Ridges, this album will be a welcome addition in their fansโ collection. For everyone else, it will come as a mild and satisfying revelation. --Martin Keller
