Customer Reviews
Average Rating: Rating: - Old material repackaged This set does live up to the title, with some lush and romantic themes. However it is merely a collection of previously released tracks, not new material. The songs come from the Fresh Aire CDs, other Steamroller discs, and the Day Parts series. (Technically speaking the Day Parts cuts are NOT Steamroller music, since Chip Davis put those CDs out under his own name and not M.S. But since Davis is the guy behind MS, that's a fairly meaningless distinction.) Anyhow, the selections here are romantic, especially the beautiful "Nepenthe" from FA6. The song sequence was also thoughtfully laid out so that the songs flow from one to the next pretty seamlessly. Still, the lack of new material makes this not much better than a "mix tape" you could have assembled yourself. As a curiosity point I counted all of the M.S. collections of re-packaged material. There are now nearly as many of those (6) as there are Fresh Aire albums (8). Rating: - Good but... CAVEAT EMPTOR! Good news and bad news about this album: First, the bad news-- NONE of it is new. If you're like me, and you own all of Chip Davis' previous albums, there is no point in buying this one. You can compile the tracks yourself and save some money. The good news is that most of the tracks on this album are pretty decent, and if you are only familiar with Mannheim's Christmas stuff, this could be a good way to introduce yourself to some of their other works (though the 25 Year Celebration CD does a far better job of this.) Appropriately enough, the music here is all fairly slow and, well, romantic. It's good background music for a quiet dinner, so it succeeds in its intentions, I just would have liked to see some new material, rather than a cleverly packaged compilation. Rating: - Relaxing I was really anxious for this to come out. I love most everything Mannheim Steamroller does, and this is another great CD. Very relaxing. Chip Davis has another winner on his hands!
