"Very good meditation music."
"Interesting and also helps to get to sleep."
It's a perfect blend of dark, whimsical, and hauntingly beautiful atmosphere for the other holiday season! But the holiday spirits are restless and eager for company this night, as the haunting strains of melodies old and new call forth from the shadows. It is the ability to weave the fine line between the light and dark sides of the holidays musically, that makes Christmas: A Ghostly Gathering one of the best albums, holiday or not, that this author has heard in recent memory.

Best Comedy & Spoken Word
Kurt Cobain The 'Priest' They Called Him - Picture Disc - Sealed US picture disc LP.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I found it very interesting how Bill Burroughs worked with Kurt to deliver a experimental and enigmatic record great for the Christmas season."
"It's a little expensive for what it is but it's still pretty cool."
"from the much troubled genius that was and is kurt cobain, only this time actually coupled with another genius in his own right, none other than william burroughs."
"As text, I prefer Junky's Christmas, but I think The Priest translates quite nicely to spoken word."
"Cobain's contribution is interesting, but not a substantive addition, IMO."
"The blank side has both William S. Burrough's and Kurt Cobain's (Cohbaine, ethnic spelling) signatures scrawled into the vinyl. I called information in Portland and asked for Tim Kerr records. The operator said "I have a Tim Kerr" and she gave me that number, which apparently was his residence."
"William S. Burroughs/Kurt Cobain - "The Priest They Called Him" (1993). A very dark and grim story, the narration is perfectly interpreted by Kurt Cobain's harsh guitar."
Best Experimental
Imagine a gym in western Ontario full of 60 children aged 9-12, singing the pop hits of the day and discovering inside themselves for the first time a love of pop music the joy and wonder of these kids is palpable! The Langley students perform their favorite 1960s and 1970s hits as if they never heard the originals; they turn "Mandy" into the kind of lo-fi pop song that Neutral Milk Hotel would perfect 20 years later, and sing "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft" like a delegation of extraterrestrial children on a friendship mission to Earth.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"It is a collection of 70's era songs recorded by the Langley School Music Project - an elementary school music class in British Columbia."
"This also sounds lame, but there is just something wonderful and haunting about the music on this CD in the context of the time and place and methods of it's creation."
"Music supervisor Hangs Fenger seems to have taken a lesson in Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" school and the instrumentals and voice often rise into a majesty that takes the breath away (and it doesn't hurt that the gym acoustics work to their advantage here, giving an echo and reverb that professional musicians shell out big bucks to capture)."
"'Desperado',hauntingly sung by then 9 year old Sheila Behman made me purchase this CD.Very rarely do I purchase an album because one song moved me.This song alone is well worth the price! There is something about this CD that is even more then sublime; it is like a slice of death-bringing back childhood feelings both joyous and painful merged together.It is hard to describe this album in words."
"The Langley Schools Music Project, composed of some Candaian elementary schools, cover the Beach Boys, the Eagles and David Bowie among others."
"I can't stop listening to this."
"I was just recently reading about the life of Antonio Vivaldi, and how he had composed the bulk of his music to be preformed by children, (profound similarity) mostly the Opera's, but the thought occurred to me that this is what music should be and we're lucky to have even heard it."
"I love this album. I've had this album for, oh, eight months now, and I listen to it constantly: I've played "Desperado" and "Space Odyssey" over the phone for friends."

Best Music Instruction
Besides drilling the multiplication facts, these songs also teach skip counting.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Third graders can effortlessly recite the multiples of numbers through 12 simply by listening to each of the songs."
"The songs are nothing amazing, but they do stick in your head and they have helped all my kids learn to skip count which has helped them immensely when it came time to learn factoring."
"Each child is different, so not all will like the music, but what I like about this one versus others is that all of the songs go to a different rhythm, where some have the same exact beat or rhythm or tempo to all facts, which I think can be a little confusing."
"A couple of years ago, my daughter memorized her multiplication tables during our trip from LA to Las Vegas (5 hours)."
"If you have a child that learns by music ans song this is great."
"One of the best features of this, is at the end all the songs are repeated but with the answers blank."
"This has been the most effective way for my son to learn his multiplication facts."
"A couple of the songs were ok, but my kids didn't learn their multiplication from it."

Best Sound Effects
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"as if they used very cheap microphones to record the sound of the thunder seperately from the sound of the rain. The crack is there at the outset... but trails off into rumbling that sounds more like a cheap sound effect from a 1960's sound effects recording."
"I used to play a thunderstorm CD years ago for insomnia, it makes me sleep like a log."
"I was hoping for a little of that feeling when listening to this but was sorely disappointed."
"Some say you get what you pay for...NOT in this case!"
"Thunder sounds to loud rain sounds to soft.I fall asleep to it and can't hear rain sounds because it has to be low enough so thunder doesn't rewake me."
"Too loud and sounds manufactured in a room versus outdoors."
"The rain sounds are really low and like it is dribbling from a pipe rather than a rain storm and the thunder is exceptionally loud, too loud in comparison so its jolts you awake."
"I was unable to go to sleep because I kept thinking the CD was finished and I would have to use another one."
