The songs tell the Christmas story in Kenny's rich emotional voice.
It also has pieces of Christmas standards such as "O Holy Night,
His rendition of these Christmas songs is excellent and I would recommend it to anyone who likes that rich voice.
With the addition of the Katina Brothers as backup singers on several songs as well as the richness of Kenny's voice each song sang on this CD is truly a gift
His voice is great and the music selection is very different, non-traditional and fresh.
This would be a wonderful christmas gift, I just love listening to it.
The piece was used in Kenny's 1996 Christmas tour "The Gift," and he continues to use it in his Christmas tours to this day."The Gift" is a masterpiece for all Christmas music fans.
This CD is a great gift for the country Christmas music lover
I listen to it alot because it keeps me grounded and helps me not to get caught up in the commercialism of the holiday but to remember a baby, a manger, and the greatest gift ever given.
Here, Kenny is joined by Wynonna (Judd) for a magnificent duet versionOther guests apart from Wynonna include the Katinas, a five-piece family group that joins Kenny on Pretty little baby child, and GLAD, a group that joins Kenny on a re-recording of a song that Kenny had recorded for his first Christmas album, Sweet little Jesus boy
Finally, a fantastic duet can be heard in "Mary did you know," performed by Winonna Judd and Kenny Rogers
You are reading snippets from reviews of Gift, The
Wonderful Album with some Christmas songs not heard often enough!
It was covered by Kathy Mattea for her Good News album and has since been covered by many more singers including Reba McEntire and may yet rise to the status of standard
" You will probably either love this album or hate it.
I do not like albums that serve up "Jingle Bells", "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", etc.
After accidently losing all my Christmas albums during a move, I had to start replacing some of them for this holiday season
