    It's surely a nice one but I'd go for the German cd-version with the original lp content if I had to choose.
    But I don't have to as I own them both.
    Merry Christmas everybody:wave:

    There is a fine line between being obnoxious and being a nuisance.

    Happy Holidays! :D

    Absolutely. I haven't played Christmas Portrait yet this holiday season, but I will have to tonight.

    Yes, there is... and I think I've managed to not just cross that line, but trample it. :)

    I'll work on it. :D Regarding my lack of talent, note that I cannot even write a complete sentence ("...one of my few talents"). :sigh:

    :)

    Back on topic, I listened to the Special Edition CD this evening. Outstanding. It is one of my favorite Christmas albums. Everyone should have a copy. :)

    Merry Christmas everyone! :)
    I'm playing this CD right now (CD 3210 DIDY 186). I love this album!
    The past couple of years, we haven't played that much Christmas. This year; a little Mannheim Steamroller (their first Christmas release), a TSO CD, and now this. To me; this is a modern day classic. Karen shines! I remember Richard saying that he considers this Karen's solo album.

    It's too bad Richard didn't consider her actual solo album her solo album... :(

    I listened to the special edition last night with some red wine and the Christmas tree lights. To my surprise, the West German CD with the original mix that I ordered from a seller in the Netherlands only a few weeks ago arrived in today's mail. Will spin they this evening.
