Hey all! My 1st throw into this lovely forum! Which Loreena's albums should I get for an Xmas album (?).. and why ?

Hehehe.. I have an intention to impress my grandpop this xmas with some LM's muse!! So thanks for getting back to me

ps: I've ONLY got the Mask & Mirror album, Books of Secrets album, and Ancient Muse album.

Parallel Dreams. Always. Times a million.

P.S. Everything will be amazing. I'm just in love with that album.

I agree with said below, you CANNOT go wrong with any of her cds.

Peace and love be yours,
Gina

If you want a christmas recording it would be A Winter Garden, which I think is great! It is a short recording, but the songs are very beautiful! Loreenas version of "God reste ye merry, gentleman" sounds faboulous! But also, the recording "To drive the cold winter away" is very christmas
If it doesn't matter if it is christmas or not, you should get "Parallel dreams". It's magical.

hi all,

in my opinion " Live in Paris & Toronto " and
" The Book of Secrets " are essential.
But i prefer the "live", it get you right there, it is very expressive and deep, you feel her grief and then she sang with bad-temperedly... Songs are masterly!!!!
The band is fabulous.

Well, good luck to the choice

Well, "To Drive the Cold Winter Away" and "A Winter Garden" are Christmas albums and both are excellent. If you just wanted to give one CD that would express the essence of LM, I would personally pick "The Visit" or "The Book of Secrets", but that is very much an individual choice.
