	Sean Smith - Christmas
	• Manufacturer: AEC • SKU: 7136328 • UPC: 894807002486 • Shipping: $1.12 • Description: Recording information: Grace Cathedral, San Francisco, CA (05/2010/07/2010). Sean Smith sets himself up for a clear challenge with a Christmas album -- it's not only one of the most crowded fields in general (and that's just counting solo acoustic performers on many different instruments) but there's one inevitable figure he can't escape fully from: John Fahey, whose work helped create the space for performers like Smith to thrive and whose own Christmas albums, however generally formal in comparison to his more experimental approaches, remain among the best holiday efforts, period. Smith's approach on the baldly titled Christmas is to wisely and immediately aim for his own path; there's a rough resonance that starts things off with "The First Noel" that's much different from the elegantly descending introduction Fahey started The New Possibility with. With that as a signpost, Smith's exploration of numerous standards often -- not always, but often enough -- conjures up an air suspended between tradition and, almost, isolation. There's something suggestively forlorn in the long pauses on "Good King Wenceslas," the slow, deliberate stateliness of "Joy to the World" and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," the quieter beginning to "O Come All Ye Faithful" before picking up the speed toward the end of the performance. No extended medleys or fantasias appear on the disc, and a number of tracks barely break two minutes or even one, including his own two original pieces, self-described improvisations both entitled "Christmas Morning," one a slow, reflective performance, the other a sprightly romp that adds sudden light to the album. Perhaps one of the most inspired of his interpretations is "Little Drummer Boy," darker notes setting the necessary rhythmic heft for the song, but his take on Vince Guaraldi's Charlie Brown Christmas masterpiece "Christmas Time Is Here" is equally moving, bright tones and slower pacing bringing out both the song's elegant beauty and perfect, fragile melancholia. It's a lovely microcosm for the warm yet still shadowed feeling of the album, one where the cover photo of Smith in a church suggests he could be playing for the lonely soul in the pews, searching for holiday cheer while the cold remains outside. ~ Ned Raggett

The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because for many retailers it was the day they went from being in the red to being in the black when they became profitable for the year. It is also the official beginning of the holiday shopping season, and Black Friday has become known for some of the best bargains, discounts and deals of the entire year! Everyone has watched stampeding crowds on the local news or diehard bargain hunters camping out overnight so they can be among the first to grab limited black friday specials at their favorite local retailers... However, if you prefer doing your holiday discount shopping from the warm and cozy comfort of home, then Cyber Monday was designed with you in mind! Online retailers spotted the Black Friday frenzy sweeping across the country as it took over brick and mortar locations - rather than compete for your black friday attention, they concocted a day that is all their own and named it Cyber Monday! The Monday after Thanksgiving is when your favorite online stores slash prices and offer their very best prices to help usher in the online holiday shopping season! That means big savings for you whether you choose to brave the local crowds on Black Friday or avoid the madness by browsing online during Cyber Monday Sales! Not to worry - the Friday and Monday after Thanksgiving might get the most attention for discount holiday shopping, but if you procrastinate beyond that magical bargain hunting window it doesn't mean you will be completely left out... In fact, this promises to be an exceptionally consumer-friendly holiday shopping season with sales, coupons and discounts extending far beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday and allowing you to find the best prices on holiday gifts until the very last minute! Hoping to avoid discount shopping withdrawal? Even after Christmas and Hanukkah have come and gone, you'll still have After Holiday Specials to help usher in the New Year!
