Christmas 2012 music CD reviews by Nick Cole
MICHAEL BUBLE CHRISTMAS – MICHAEL BUBLE (Reprise): The Canadian crooner is in tip-top form with this deluxe special edition of his best-selling album of Yuletide musts like Silent Night and Santa Baby. Michel B will take some topping from going straight to the top of the tree this Christmas. Rating: 10/10
THE SOUND OF MUSIC” – VARIOUS ARTISTS (Sony Music): London’s number one radio station Kiss celebrates its 22nd year in business with this cracking three-CD compilation of the year’s play-list by djs like Rickie, Melvin and Charlie. The Yuletide party will be in full swing with tracks from Little Mix, Misha B, Rihanna, Olly Murs and JLS and Plan B. There’s no less than 10 chart-toppers in this collection to please younger ears. 8/10.

FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS – THE COLLECTION” – FINE YOUNG CANNIBALS (Rhino): In this writer’s view Hull-born Roland Gift was perhaps the best rock singer of his generation. Great to see The Cannibals rolling back the years with stompers like Johnny Come Home and She Drives Me Crazy. 9/10.
COMMUNARDS – THE COLLECTION – THE COMMUNARDS (Rhino): More magic from the 1980s with dance-filled hits like Never Can Say Godbye and Don’t Leave this Way. The Communards have also stood the test of time, 8/10.
