Description
Those galloping snare pickups right before the strings crest in Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24 still raise hairs. Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s Christmas Eve and Other Stories takes the Savatage DNA and rewires it into a grand, wintery rock opera. Built by producer Paul O’Neill with that core lineup, the 1996 debut swings from choral drama to crunching riffs without losing melody. A Mad Russian’s Christmas drives Tchaikovsky through Marshall stacks, while Ornament slows the pace for a human, candlelit breather. This crystal clear pressing gives the arrangements more space and sharper imaging, and cymbals decay cleanly. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Trans-Siberian Orchestra records online with us. Big moments feel cinematic, while quiet ones sit comfortably instead of collapsing into mush. It belongs on the shelf next to Mannheim Steamroller, but with a harder, theatre-minded edge of late-90s symphonic rock. Spin it at a small family gathering or a late drive and you’ll get the full sweep without the schmaltz. The see-through platter even suits the story’s wintry palette.
Shop online or dig for it in our Preston store while stock lasts.
