My second favorite original Christmas album Feb 08, 2004
By Peter Durward Harris
"Pete the music fan"
As originally released, this album had six duets and four solo tracks - two each by Kenny and Dolly. I note that the version currently available in America has just nine tracks (confirmed to me by an American friend who has seen it), the two excellent Kenny Rogers tracks (Silent night and The Christmas song) being replaced by Dolly's Hard candy Christmas (which, despite its title, is not a Christmas song). I checked my local store and the UK version still has the original track listing. Dolly's two solo offerings on the original album - White Christmas and a medley of Winter wonderland and Sleigh ride - are both excellent.
Good as the solo tracks are, it is the six duets that make this album stand out among my many wonderful Christmas albums. Dolly wrote five of the songs especially for the album and the other is also an original song. I believe in Santa Claus and With bells on are rollicking, up-tempo songs. Christmas without you is a reflective song about missing somebody. A Christmas to remember is another upbeat song. Once upon a Christmas is a stirring song about the birth of Jesus (and has since been covered by Selah on their Christmas album Rose of Bethlehem, with Dolly guesting on that track). The greatest gift of all (the only song among the duets that Dolly didn't write) is a lovely romantic ballad, which was covered a year later by Lee Greenwood for his excellent Christmas To Christmas album; other singers have understandably covered this song too.
This album is best with the two Kenny Rogers solo tracks, but is worth buying anyway because of the outstanding duets. I have bought many brilliant original Christmas albums; this one remained my favorite for more than twenty years after its release.

Fun and Loveing Dec 09, 2003 This album has been around for many years and I have thought it to be one of the best albums for the season since the first time I heard it,long ago. I think that Dolly and Kenny sing wonderfully together and should do more albums together. this is just realy a great album and I hope others enjoy it as much as I do.

Incredible May 27, 2007
By Gary Bisogna

This is the absolutely most beautiful Christmas music I've ever heard. Dolly and Kenny's "Once Upon A Christmas" song is not just a song, it is an experience!

It's not Christmas without Kenny & Dolly! Dec 02, 2007
By K. Wehmeyer My children and I began listening to this music at Christmas when they were small after seeing a TV special with Kenny & Dolly featuring this music. (They are now 27 & 31.) I fell in love with it then and there. I still have the original record that filled our home with the feeling of Christmas. We had recorded the record onto tapes so that we could have Christmas in our cars. This album has been a family favorite for more than 20 years. I found the CD a few years ago and now each one of us has our own copy and it still isn't Christmas until Kenny & Dolly sing for us. You are missing the best Christmas CD EVER if you don't own this one! Buy it now so that you can enjoy a hard candy Christmas with a fast talking lover and some slow burning wood. You won't be sorry!
