'Tis the season for Christmas albums: From Manilow to Dylan, pop/rock music
lovers have their pick.

Barry Manilow
In the Swing of Christmas (Sony Music)
Who knew Barry Manilow's Silver Bells could be held up as a fine example of
the art of sound mixing? The soft-pop veteran gets creative in his offering
of old favourites. In Manilow's hands, Jingle Bells gets a little jazzier,
and his piano-heavy, swingin' O Tannenbaum/Winter Wonderland medley is cool
enough to make us forget Charlie Brown's Christmas.
