I have always been a big fan of Bonanza. Growing up, it was our family's "sit down together and watch TV" show. I have such fond memories of that time in my life. I never knew that this record (now a CD) was ever released. It was great to hear the Cartwrights all together again. It made me feel like I was a kid again watching my favorite western family.

When I set out to search for this CD, I really thought my efforts would be fruitless, but was pleased to find that many people have the same fond memories of the Bonanza TV show. The quality was excellent and it warmed my heart to listen to those nostalgic songs. It put me right back in my parent's livingroom when I was a child.

Like many 50's and 60's families, we were glued to the TV every Sunday night for the latest episode of Bonanza. I was a Bonanza junkie and bought all the albums they produced. My favorite was the Christmas album. As newlyweds decorating our first tree, I suggested to my very cynical husband that we listen to the album together. He scoffed but lovingly agreed....and he too fell in love with the album. For 35 years our tradition has been to listen to the album when decorating the tree and many more times during the Christmas season. What do we love so much about this album? It's hokey and folksy evoking a simpler time. The neighbors gather at the Ponderosa to trim their tree. While partying they sing together not only classic religious carols but also whimsical songs of Santa and the lighter side of the holiday. Many of these songs I have not heard anywhere but here and they are such a refreshing change from the mall or pop radio station holiday repertoire. The Cartwrights and their friends reminisce together and tell legends of Christmas traditions all over the world. This is life at it's best: neighbors gathering, singing, having fun. Not only is the music uplifting, but so is the message.
So my husband was an instant convert. We obsessed when we thought we had lost or misplaced the album. We vowed to make a tape. Then last year our 22 year old son, who grew up with a taste of Bonanza every Christmas, surprised us with the CD that he found on Amazon. Now we can listen to it in the car. I am giving the CD to several friends this year. They will be converts, I am sure, and so will you.
