"Joy to the world! Deana Martin returns!
Since her last release 'Memories Are Made Of This', Deana
Martin has been at the top of our playlist. Her new Christmas
CD continues her father’s tradition of swinging, cool
music. “Let It Snow” has quickly become one of
our most requested selections. Let’s push Deana back
in the studio for more great holiday tunes next year!"

“If you’re looking to add a bit of “Ring
A Ding Ding” to your Christmas programming, look
no further than Deana Martin’s latest release. I
was hooked from the start of the swingin’ version
of “Silver Bells”. We’re giving this
one lots of action on THE BREEZE.”

“The torch has been passed, and Deana Martin is
the most worthy recipient. I detect a very broad Dean Martin
smile of approval beaming down on Deana and her entry into
the world of Christmas music. Can’t wait till next
year and a CD full of Martin Magic … Deana, that
is!”

"Even the most wonderful Christmas songs can sometimes
get a little "ho-ho-ho-hum" year after year. That's
why it's such a pleasure to have Deana Martin's swingin'
treatments of these holiday classics to brighten our
playlist. The arrangements are sophisticated and
really cool. And as for Deana's vocals,WOW, what
a gift, playful, heartfelt, and a true joy to the world
of music lovers."

“What a pleasure and honor it is to hear Deana Martin’s “Favorite
Holiday Songs!” Deana has that rare combination
of style, poise and exactly the type of interpretive chops
with a song you’d expect from Dean’s kid!
We’re already on these three tracks and have been
since Thanksgiving morning. The audience response is positive … and
for good reason. Deana makes these classic Christmas standards
sparkle with her wonderful voice, backed by Charlie Calello’s
inventive arrangements. If I sound knocked out by this CD,
I am!
I would like to ask my brethren in the radio business to
lay these tracks by my pal, Deana Martin, on your audience.
You’ve heard these songs so many times … now
it’s time to hear them in a manner as fresh as the
new fallen snow. If Santa’s reading this, please deliver
a full album of Christmas songs by Deana Martin next year”

“Being a native Buckeye from Ohio I have always
been a lover of Dean’s music, and now I am enjoying
Deana’s music as well. This CD comes at just the
right time for me to add it to the collection of Holiday
sounds I’m playing on the Breakfast Show. The 3 songs
that Deana has recorded for this collection are perfect.
They showcase her great talent. Can’t say I’ve
got a favorite. They are just right for the season.
Have a happy holiday.”

“Every year at this time the search for fresh material
is often disappointing, but now comes DEANA MARTIN with
this CD full of solid Big Band arrangements and appealing
singing style.
This one is sure to please our audience with its fresh
approach and clean, crisp sound calling forth the gentle
snowflakes on an icy morning. What could be more attractive
to our audience, along with a familiar name for them to latch
on to.
This CD is a magnificent tribute to Christmas, melding
the traditional with today’s style.”

“'Silver Bells' was the standout. With 'Let it Snow',
and the always beautiful 'The Christmas Song', close behind.
Put them all together, they spells Christmas – the
happiest time of the year!
Great job, Deana and Happy Holidays to all!!”

“I have one big complaint. Don’t get me wrong,
the three songs are terrific. Our MartiniInTheMorning.com
listeners across the USA and around the world LOVE Deana’s “Silver
Bells”. Her “Let It Snow”, reminds them
of her Father’s quintessential recording. And Deana’s
recording of “The Christmas Song” makes us
all yearn for those chestnuts and an open fire. But Deana!
Talk about leaving them wanting more!!! Our listeners are
dying for more Deana Martin Christmas songs!
I have to add one thing – as much as we love playing
music from Deana’s “Memories are Made of This” CD – there
is something very special that happens when one of the Martins
sing Christmas songs. I spoke with Deana on the air last
week and shared this observation. Deana’s Dad always
sounds like he’s having fun when he’s singing.
But there’s a little more of a smile in his voice when
he sings Christmas songs. The same is true of Deana. There
is a child-like joy that shines through as she performs these
holiday classics. And those arrangements …. Absolutely
FABULOUS!
So I register this one complaint – MORE MERRY CHRISTMAS
DEANA! More please!
Happy Holidays form Sunny Southern California and our listeners
around the world."
