Excellent CD! Donnas voice is timeless. The second CD is all 12" dance mixes. I forgot how great the MacArthur Park Suite was. If They included the Hot Stuff/Bad girls Mix (Anthology) in the CD, It would have got 5 stars from me!.

    3 out of 5 stars The Extras Are the Main Reason To Get This.......2006-03-11

    I own several Donna Summer compilations, not so much because I relish having several copies of the same song, but because each one has something that the others do not. For example; the oldest Summer compilation I have ( a European import released in the very late '80s ) is the ONLY one to this day that has the full length version of "State Of Independece" free of the annoying, damaged tape section that muffles parts in the middle of the song ( If you own any of the other compilations, and are not sure what I'm talking about, listen to the song with headphones on. About the time Donna starts singing " Sounds like a Signal from you..." you'll hear noticeable muffling in one channel for much of that section. An appalling defect on so many releases from a major label ).

    This release is unique as, to my knowledge, it is the only official major label Donna Summer release to include the legendary Patrick Cowley megamix of "I Feel Love" - a staggering 15 minute mix. This version is incredible when you consider that it was produced and hand-edited ( no digital tools back then ) by the late Cowley, who played all of the synthesizer overdubs, in his home studio in 1979. Previously only available as either an acetate bootleg, or on the defunct, DJ only subscription service "Disconet", this CD version has been remastered to the best possible sound from the available source. Considering the original "I Feel Love" parts were, no doubt, recorded from vinyl to tape when Cowley produced this mix, it sounds very good. This mix alone is the best reason to get this collection.

    As to the main disc, you've heard it all before, and in longer versions. Most of the tracks on this disc are the shortened radio edits, and only of interest to the casual listener.

    For the best overall collection, my recommendation would be the 2004 release "Gold", which not only contains the full length album versions of most tracks, but includes several glaring omissions left off of the older, very similar "Anthology".

    However I still say that this release is worth buying, if only for the contents of the bonus disc, which contains some decent newer material, as well as the 12" version of "Love To Love You Baby" and the aforementioned, very rare mix of "I Feel Love"

    4 out of 5 stars Much better than the US version.......2005-04-02

    The tracklisting here is exactly the same as the UK & Mexican versions of this album. I checked the American CD before buying this and I certainly came into conclusion that this is the best choice. Why? First of all, it includes the long version of Love To Love You Baby, which, as far as I know it's only included in the album of the same name, as well as the Casablanca Story box (and recently the import title "The Ultimate Collection"). The thing is that the above mentioned are expensive and/or hard to find. So this would represent the most affordable and convenient choice.

    You also the get the full version of "On the Radio" which is another hard to find.

    And last, but not least, you get the Single Version of "Theme From the Deep (Down Deep Inside)" as well as "Dinner with Gershwin".

    Get it now, you won't be disappointed!

    5 out of 5 stars Carols of Christmas Past.......2003-12-24

    If you're tired of Christmas songs after hearing so many of the same ones over and over and are ready for something new here is the solution.
    Zola Van's beautiful melodies give the Christmas spirit a new dimension. Carols from past centuries, seemingly lost in time, are brought to the present and surely must sound more beautiful than ever before.
    These selectins are calming and soothing to the nerves. Highlights here are "Huron Carol", "The Boar's Head Carol" and "The Dutch Carol". But every song is played with remarkable excellence. For those longing to hear something more familiar, the timeless carol "Silent Night" completes this magnificent set of piano solos.

    5 out of 5 stars from Solo Piano Publications.......2003-11-08

    When I slipped "Carol: A Christmas Journey" into my CD player, I expected to hear a collection of the usual Christmas pieces and carols with Zola Van's inspired solo piano interpretation. She had told me that this album was going to be different, and different it is! What sets "Carol" apart from other collections is the darkness and moodiness of the album. At first, it seemed almost bleak, but the more I listen, the more I hear the hope and anticipation in the music. Most of the carols are extremely old, going as far back as the twelfth century, and come from various European countries and traditions (one is Indian/Canadian). Van really did her homework on this album, researching the origins of the music as she collected the songs, and writing a short history of each piece in the liner notes. With all of the Christmas music I listen to and teach, I was amazed that I was familiar with only a small number of the carols, and because the collection is so unusual, I would think it would be easy to listen to it year-round without feeling silly about playing a Christmas album in, say, April while you're preparing your taxes!

    The three familiar carols are "Coventry Carol," "Bring a Torch Jeanette, Isabella," and "Silent Night," all played lovingly true to the originals, but with fresh interpretations. "A Virgin Most Pure," is a hauntingly beautiful carol that tells of the prophecy and of three journeys to Bethlehem. Van's use of heavy chords in the deep bass of the piano accentuates the mystery and darkness of many of the pieces, this one included. "Children's Song of the Nativity" is a bit lighter, full of innocence and questions about traveling to Bethlehem - how far is it? what will we do when we get there? - a very sweet vignette. My favorite track is probably the darkest one of all, "Huron Carol". The words come from Huron droning, and were set to an Indian/Canadian tune by a Jesuit missionary who taught the Huron and Wendot in a wilderness outpost in Quebec. Van does an exquisite job with this piece - to the point that you can almost feel the chilling winds blowing through it. "The Boar's Head Carol" is a bit lighter and more festive. "The Dutch Carol" comes from about 1599, and is delicate, melancholy,and very beautiful. "Ding Dong Merrily on High" is probably the most upbeat piece - a dance that servants and peasants would perform for their employers' entertainment.

    A very unusual collection of holiday music, "Carol" is certainly an antidote for too much Santa Claus. It makes you realize how far back our holiday traditions go, and the vastly different ways in which Christ's birth has been celebrated over the centuries. Historically, this is a fascinating collection - I learned so much from the liner notes. Musically, it is a spiritual and introspective journey to hear these haunting melodies played with such care and emotion. Zola Van has done an outstanding job with this album. Just be aware that this is not a happy-go-lucky album of "Jingle Bells" and "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."

    5 out of 5 stars Really Big Shoes.......2003-11-01

    What I liked most was the powerful, suspenseful style of play, swirling with emotion, her embellishing style radiating a natural grandeur. I also liked the way her arrangements seemed to get to the heart of these Christmas melodies without being too precious. Her realization seemed to be much more about integrating Christmas into her musical vision than about trying to be a part of the sweet, tinkling chorus we'll be hearing soon enough. And it should be noted that she applied her style to a relatively unusual selection of carols, so there were significant segments where I could enjoy Christmas music without it being something I've heard over and over.

    I found her treatments to be both relaxing and moving. And mind you, this--with the stereo on the fritz and my boombox at Lost Pines with my wife on a training mission--was first heard on the tinkly little computer speakers. I soon had to graduate it to the DVD player in the den to get the full surround, but its power is evident whatever the volume or acoustics.

    I like this one a lot.

    5 out of 5 stars Mystical Christmas Journey.......2003-10-19

    "I am a simple traveler. I am transported adrift a gentle, melodic seduction across hundreds of years to this place. Here in a shroud of feudal protection is common man, with reasoning and conduct conforming to his day, desperately seeking beauty, purity, and gentleness in an otherwise brutal world. Beyond dark stone walls of medieval thought, the allure of the beautiful virgin and the child-king's humble birth is the cherished focus of desire and intrigue." ~Zola Van

    I first heard Zola Van's radiant music on a CD titled "The HeartAid Project." Her music captures hope, wonder, kindness and beauty. The fluidity of the fragile notes are balanced by the strength and depth of the message. Crisp, delicate and heart-felt notes mingle with images of Christmas memories and dreams.

    There are lesser-known carols you might be hearing for the first time and a few beloved favorites that have survived in the hearts and minds of people across the centuries.

    1. A Virgin Most Pure - Poignant and delicate rendition of an Old English carol.

    2. Coventry Carol: the Holy Innocents - A 16th Century English carol with familiar strains and has grief and love intertwined.

    3. Children's Song of the Nativity - A piece filled with questions and expectation. "How far is it to Bethlehem? Not very far. Shall we find the stable room lit by a star?" Zola plays this piece with precision and deep understanding. It is pure and beautiful.

    4. Carol of the Birds is from Bas-Quercy, France. The peasants of the time told legends of enchanted animals who could speak on Christmas Eve. I can see birds swooping and soaring and following the "noel star."

    5. The Wexford Carol is an Irish Carol known as the "Enniscorthy Carol."

    6. Huron Carol is an Indian/Canadian tune - One of my favorites because it almost foretells sadness. Zola shows the full force of her interpretation as she alternates between spectacular lightness of hand and rich intensity. Zola has truly captured a moment in time with exquisite detail.

    7. The Boar's Head Carol - A piece to take your breath away. The notes almost seem to be floating through the air like an invigorating breeze.

    8. Joyeaux Noel - A French Carol sung at New Year's in the 1400s. Zola captures mystery and magic. You will recognize this sweet dream of new beginnings and hope for the future. This piece might delve into your memory and remind you of your most beautiful Christmas memories. I love how Zola tantalizes the listener with tiny raindrop notes and then just sends a downpour of notes to refresh your spirit.

    9. Bring a Torch Jeanette, Isabella - A 15th Century French Provincial Carol with a playful twist. In the depth of night I can see little torches swirling in circles as Jeanette playfully dances instead of hurrying with the torches. There is a touch of humor here. It is as if time stops and this song could play forever.

    10. The Dutch Carol - The beauty here is a solitary angel flying high above the earth. In the stillness of the night you can here "How sweet is love." The most comforting carol on this CD. It wraps you in warmth and you almost feel protected from all harm. Zola's playing dissolves all stress, this is a piece you could easily fall asleep to. As beautiful as a lullaby with a depth of caring that speaks of love and sweet dreams.

    11. Ding Dong Merrily on High - A lighthearted piece. The emphasis here seems to be a joyous celebration.

    12. Poverty - Spectacular depth and understanding. Zola shows her sensitivity in this interpretation. I hear a message so subtle it almost begs not to be explained but only to be felt with the heart. Perhaps this piece mostly evokes a sense of awe. We gaze at the tiny gift sleeping in the straw and are amazed at how a small child could be the hope of the world.

    13. Silent Night - Instantly recognizable and a combination of all we love at Christmas Time. Zola plays this carol with an intricate beauty befitting this captivating story of heavenly peace.

    Truly, I've never heard a collection of piano solos so delicate in magical beauty. Zola Van's music will quickly capture your heart. The universal messages of hope, peace and love have been captured in her interpretations of each carol. I highly recommend "Carol: A Christmas Journey" for the Holiday Season or anytime when you need a musical escape. It is timeless in its appeal and is a much needed escape from the harried pace of the holiday season or everyday life.

    You may also enjoy "Paint the Forest Winter," and "River to River Trail: The Hike."

    5 out of 5 stars A smooth ride to the holidays with this recording!.......2003-10-14

    I have had the pleasure and priviledge of listening and reviewing Zola Van's 2 previuos releases. I am proud to say the the third release is just a entertaining as the other 2. Zola Van's talent seems with out limits in this release.

    There are 13 tracks, totaling over 50 minutes of some of the best piano music out there today. The complete collection of Christamas music has you listening to all time favorites like Silent Night, which is my personal faovrite on this album.

    You have some lesser known releases such as Carol of the Birds and the Wexford Carol. Even though the music is lsated for the holiday season, and it would make a perfect holiday gift, this cd could and should be listened to almost any timeof the year.

    Having been given the rare oppurtunity to hear music that not only calms the situation but also relaxes you at the same is one of life simple pleasures. This recording is gentle in sound but large in volume as the music will resonante for more that just the Winter season.

    Zola Van has given the listener a true gift of the holiday spirit - excellent job!
