Ultra-Lounge • Christmas Cocktails Vol. 1

From Amazon:
This CD makes me laugh out loud. That's saying something. Christmas is often a stressful time. I love the CD, I love the concept, I love the packaging, I love the liner notes. I suppose if I lived in the "swinging" era of night clubs, pointy bras, martinis, and ashtrays on every table, I would find it all a big drag; I don't smoke, don't drink, and I'm a feminist. But, at this safe distance, the swinging, Rat Pack era is an archaelogical trove of great fun.

And, heck, these people really knew their way around a song. Even as I'm laughing at the anachronisms in the CD, I'm enjoying the heck out of some really good music. Kay Starr, Nancy Wilson, Nat King Cole -- these folks had pipes, and the bands are tight. I think that if this CD can't shake someone out of his holiday blues, then hospitalization might be the only route.

De Amazon:
Este CD me hace reír a carcajadas. Eso es decir algo. La Navidad es a menudo una época estresante. Me encanta el CD, me encanta el concepto, me encanta el embalaje, me encantan las notas de la cubierta. Supongo que si viviera en la era del "swing" de los clubes nocturnos, los sujetadores puntiagudos, los martinis y los ceniceros en todas las mesas, lo encontraría todo un fastidio; no fumo, no bebo y soy feminista. Pero, a esta distancia segura, la era del Rat Pack es un tesoro arqueológico de gran diversión.

Y, diablos, estas personas realmente sabían cómo manejar una canción. Incluso mientras me río de los anacronismos del CD, disfruto de la buena música. Kay Starr, Nancy Wilson, Nat King Cole... esta gente tenía tubos, y las bandas son muy unidas. Creo que si este CD no puede sacarle a alguien de su depresión navideña, entonces la hospitalización podría ser la única vía.
