A Christmas Together
The Muppets
have sung with so many people over the years, from Elton John to Tony Bennett,
yet it has always seemed like their performances with John Denver were somehow
the perfect match. Christmas Together is a delightful--what else?--sing-along
collection of Christmas favorites as performed by Denver and the Muppets
ensemble. While the usual suspects have more than their say here--Kermit, Miss
Piggy--the standout piece is "Twelve Days of Christmas." What could be better
than a Muppet a day? Denver leads the critters through a tender "Silent Night,"
which comes couched in a medley that closes with a rousing "We Wish You a Merry
Christmas." "Deck the Halls" is equally raucous--about as raucous as Muppets
can get. Listen for the subtle lyric adaptations and the witty exchanges
between Denver and his minstrels. Definitely not just for kids. --Steve Gdula

A Child's Hanukkah
Holiday albums
can be tedious, sappy affairs--drenched in good intentions but sappy
nonetheless. Not so, this release from the consistent Music for Little People
label. It may be short on old standards, but that's only because there's a lack
of English-language Hanukkah standards to begin with. A Child's Hanukkah makes
the case for a number of original tunes, and while not all will make the canon,
they're consistently entertaining enough for a quality listen. Klezmer is the
musical bed here, coupled with joyous clarinet and tambourine fills,
supplemented with songs like "The Hanukkah Hop" (a variation on the bunny hop),
"We've Got a Lot of Latkes" (followed by "Dance of the Leftover Latkes"), and
"God Rest Ye, Jerry Mandlebaum." Held together by dialogue--a family
celebrating the holiday together, with plenty of lessons delivered along the
way--this is a great addition to any child's Hanukkah. --Randy Silver
