Esquivel! Merry Xmas From the Space-Age Bachelor Pad

kind of disappointing

Throwing a Xmas cocktail party and need some tunes to set the mood? Look no further.The CD begins with a spoken word bit featuring the cheeky Esquivel himself welcoming you into his home and giving you a little "tour" of his pad. What follows is about 30 minutes of weird takes on Xmas favorites, with some of the sounds being pretty out there. Cheesy? Sometimes. Kitschy? Often. Fun? Always.My only complaint is that it is so short.

This is the grooviest Xmas CD I have! So cool to hear some unique yet familiar renditions! Friends always comment, "what is this? It's so cool!"

A bit short; the intro and outro pieces are extraneous (except as filler), but a nice album to have in the mix during the holidays.

Esquivel was a master of creative, unique and imaginative arrangements. He mostly succeeded, for me, in this Holiday collection. Sound quality is great

Nice holiday tunes.

I love Christmas and I am always looking for unique Christmas CDs that I haven't heard time and time again. This CD is a must for anyone wanting a groovy holiday season!

I heard a couple of songs from this album online listening to Christmas music and had to have it. Totally original sounds to the familiar songs we all know. Love it!

Nice addition to any Esquivel collection.

11月末に頼んで3～5週間とのわりには、思ったより早く届きました。期待通り聞いているだけで楽しくなるような笑えてくるようなクリスマスパーティのＢＧＭにもピッタリの一枚です。「♪プイプイ」というコーラスや独特の音使いなど間の抜け具合は絶品。SPACE-AGEのみなさんはもちろん、そうでない方たちにもおすすめ。ただどの曲も短くてＣＤ全部でも３０分弱と短いのが残念。聞き流す感じなので、もうちょっと長ければ星５つでした。
