Dean Martin's holiday specials qualified as "must-see TV" decades before that phrase was coined. His easygoing charm and velvety smooth voice won over a generation of fans in the 1950s and 1960s--and still holds sway over modern-day hipsters. This holiday album helps to show why. Never one for cheap sentiment, Dino sticks to the sultry ballads that he knows so well, emphasizing tunes like "Baby, It's Cold Outside" and "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm" over traditional carols. --David Sprague

 An essential part of your Christmas library... December 1, 2007
From Dean Martin's years with Capitol records, comes this collection of Christmas songs (There are many other repackagings these songs; all are pretty much the same). This is a warm, smooth and varied Christmas CD. Dino is quite capable on old Christmas standards like "White Christmas" and "Let It Snow", but "Christmas Blues" also reveals that the Dean can also sing the blues. Dino's comedic talent is also put to good use in his version of "Rudolph" and "Baby It's Cold Outside". Although only a little more than a half hour of music, Dean Martin's "Season's Greetings" should be an essential part of your Christmas library.
Dino Nostalgia From The Capitol Days January 18, 2007
Collecting Dino from back in the Jerry days (50s). Have this timeless
christmas songs from first "A Winter Romance" and so "Holliday Cheer" LPs.
This is a well done RR BUT it's NOT the cover you see pictured on the
product In my case it was o.k. as I dont have this one ever but
it's very inportant for a collector that what you see is what you got.

 Cheap rip off of Dean's "A Winter's Romance" November 20, 2004

Buy the Capital release entitled "A Winter's Romance", and get an ORIGINAL with all 13 songs, not 10. This CD is a CHEAP RIPOFF!

Dean Martin's "Season's Greetings" is the only Dean Martin album I own--a friend got it for me after being shocked that it was not part of our Christmastime CD collection. I have been really very pleasantly surprised by it. What an incredibly smooooooth voice this native Ohioan was blessed with, and how skillfully he uses it! The album opens with "White Christmas," on which Martin conveys regret and longing beautifully. The very next song--"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!" is a gorgeously boppy, finger-poppin' Rat Pack rendition of this classic Christmas tune. Martin sounds as though he's holding a martini and a cigarette while he's singing, and that's part of the fun. What can I say--the guy was the epitome of cool!On the underused "Baby, It's Cold Outside," Martin tries to convince a cadre of female singers to stay inside with him ("I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice")--I know I'd be convinced! "Winter Wonderland" incorporates sleigh bells, smooth violins, and oohing-aahing background singers to evoke a fantasy winter snowscape. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" never sounded as good and as swingin' as it does here in Martin's capable hands. His voice is so mellow, so rich, so inimitably smooth that every song is a delight. Highly recommended!

Nifty little (only 25 minutes) cd for your holiday collection. Holiday and just plain winter time classics crooned only the way Dino could do it.
