Fans of Andrew Lloyd Webber will discover he has a soul mate in one Paul O'Neill, the "conductor" of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. A dyed-in-the-wool sentimentalist, O'Neill presents this pop-rock tale from 1998 with all the glitz and glory of a Lloyd Webber Broadway show. Playing to the common themes of the season through a tale about a little angel sent to Earth to leave behind a gift, O'Neill creates a big-sounding production heavy on lead guitars and orchestral filigree. There are pieces of familiar Christmas carols and hymns and a handful of unembellished acoustic numbers to offset the brighter parts of the musical melodrama. While his singers and players are all professional sounding, O'Neill often mistakes sentiment as a grand gesture when it needs to be something less ambitious or noticeable. Nonetheless, there's a TV special or Broadway show wrapped up in this attic and it won't go away until it gets done. --Martin Keller

 christmas attic November 11, 2009
R. K. Gildersleeve (WA/OR)
This is another great TSO album. You'll love it! If you love TSO you'll enjoy this one.
One of my favorite songs on this one is 'Three Kings and I (What really happened)'
It's a fast pace album with some very meaningful songs in it. Make sure to read the
booklet that comes with it, it helps with understanding some of the story songs.
Another TSO Masterpiece June 13, 2009
Michael A. Clark (Londonderry Northern Ireland)
The Christmas Attic, another TSO masterpiece, is another beautifully produced piece of work. Again, it has a Christmas theme but is another beautiful story set at Christmas time. This is another TSO CD that you can listen to anytime of the year. The orchestration, vocals, lyrics, , and the children's choir coming together make this CD a must have. This is another TSO CD that should be listened to from beginning to end without any interruptions. It is very touching and could bring a tear to your eye. I highly recommend this and any TSO CD to anyone. Read the story in the enclosed booklet, put on the CD, sit back and follow along. You won't regret it. This is one beautiful piece of music.

I bought this for "Christmas Canon" and that one selection made the purchase worthwhile. I was disappointed that there were no others on the album that I really enjoyed. I don't know why. I guess they just weren't Christmassy enough.
