A uniquely Bob Bennett view of Christmas

No one should ever accuse Bob Bennett of being less than honest in his lyrics, or mundane in his choice of melodies. This album is classic Bob Bennett. Some wonderful guitar renditions of classic Christmas tunes, some "modernizing" of old melodies, and of course, new songs with that wonderful B.B. wit. I really enjoyed this album, especially the cuts, Christmas for Cynics, It may not have been December, and my favorite, December MIA. All these thoughtfully address contemparary issues surrounding Christmas, yet are full of hope and joy. This album will be a welcome addition to any Bob Bennett fan's collection. And a personal note to Bob- Give us more!

From CHRISTIANITY TODAY (Their Star Rating & Review)

From CHRISTIANITY TODAY: Thoughtfully pursuing Christmas with his delicate acoustic refrains, Bob Bennett combines his lilting vocal and humble insights to create a holiday music delight. Whether musing on the Christ Child's real birthday on "It May Have not Been December" or citing his "bah-humbug!" jeers on "Christmas for Cynics," the folk singer/songwriter perfectly captures all the quirks of Westerners' love/hate relationship with the holidays. "Classic" Christmas recordings make light of the season's chaos while ever so poignantly reminding us why we bother to celebrate. Achieving both, the timeless effects of Christmastide should become classic in no time.

Vintage Bob Bennett

I've followed Bennett's music from the time of his debut album "First Things First" in 1979 to the present. "Christmastide" stands strongly in the stream of what he's always given listeners: Thoughtful, reflective, honest lyrics and memorable melodies set to outstanding accompaniment on the acoustic guitar. If you only buy one holiday album in 2009, make it "Christmastide."
