Just what I wanted
»
I was very pleased when I received the Christmas Chipmunk CD, my daughter loves the chipmunks and this made an early Christmas present. The CD arrived very quickly and good as new. My daughter is still listening to it and keeps it by the computer, so not only is it great for the holidays she enjoys it all the time. Again, I was very please and if you are wondering about ordering something through AMAZON, you could not place your order with a better company.

All right you chipmunks, are you ready to take helium and sing your song?
-I'll say we are!
-Yeah!
-Let's sing it now!
Okay, Simon?
-Okay!
Okay, Theodore?
-Okay!
Okay Alvin? Alvin? ALVIN!
-OKAY!!!
Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for football and time for beer
We made this c.d., and it is fine
And no, we're not into pantomime
We want our fans to hear our tunes
Classic carols, empty balloons
We can hardly read or talk
Please Christmas run, don't walk
Okay fellas get ready
That was very good, Simon.
-Naturally.
Very good Theodore.
-Ahhhh.
Ah, Alvin, your tape loop was flat, watch it.
Ah, Alvin. Alvin. ALVIN!
-OKAY
Want some music that is such fun
forget about that stupid BB gun
Buy this now, before it's too late
It's Christmas, don't hesitate
We can hardly stand debate
It's Christmas, don't hesitate...
Very good boys
-Let's sing it again! Yeah, let's sing it again!
No. That's enough, let's not overdo it
-What do you mean overdo it?
-We want to sing it again!
Now, wait a minute, boys
-Why can't we sing it again?
-(Chipmunk chatter)
Alvin, cut that out .. Theodore, just a minute.
Simon will you cut that out? Boys....
And no, they have never aged. Which is fine with me....

What was Capitol/EMI thinking?
»
In 2007, Capitol/EMI FINALLY released on CD the closest-to-perfect configuration to date of the Chipmunks' two original Christmas albums. All twenty-four original songs (plus a bonus track) were included. The original cover art from both volumes was used even replicating the "foil" look of the original 1960s LPs. The remastering was fantastic and it never sounded better. I heard details I'd never noticed before in my 30-odd years of listening to these albums. The only real negative was that they resequenced the tracks but that was forgiveable.
That version is now out of print (after one year!) and has been replaced with a new, but definitely NOT improved edition for 2008. When I first saw it I assumed it was simply a re-issue of the 2007 version with revised cover art (which I actually really like -- modernizes it a bit while keeping the original 1960s character designs.) Upon closer inspection however, I noticed that this new version has DROPPED FOUR TRACKS (as well as the bonus track.)
Two of the missing tracks ("Jolly Old Saint Nicholas" and "Wonderful Day") are nice but not essential. Dave's jazzy version of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" however was definitely a highlight and "Hang Up Your Stockin'" was one of the absolute best tracks on both albums. (The bonus track with Canned Heat was also dropped, but that's not a big deal.)
Thanks Capitol/EMI. You fixed it only to break it again. Such a shame.
If you can't track down the 2007 edition, then just wait and see if they get it right in 2009!

Brings back the god old days
»
This was a great christmas cd that brought back the good old days when I used to watch the chipmunks. The voices are very clear and still make me laugh.
