Yes, but isn't it remastered too? The album artwork looks so nice, I hate the 20th Century Masters artwork!

Good question. I'm not sure. Your 20th Century Masters CD should definitely be remastered, though. I actually prefer the 20CM cover.

Yeah, the 20th Century Masters is remastered but I researched this year's release and I thought I read that it was remastered somewhere but I could be completely wrong.

I just got the Charlie Brown Christmas CD, on sale this week at Best Buy for 7.99. I'm loving it! Was hoping to get it this year!!!

Jackson 5: Ultimate Christmas Collection, $9.99 at Best Buy

21 tracks, 8 of which I didn't have (but were remixes), all-new photos, nice and classy artwork/booklet theme - I feel happy with this purchase! I just wish they wouldn't change the name of the album every time it was released. There's nothing wrong with the original title - "Jackson 5 Christmas Album"! Plus, this release is pretty deceiving if you're only a casual fan - different cover, different title. Whew!

^ Glad you got it, DF5282! I agree with you entirely on the album title and packaging.

I'm gonna be begging my mom for Gaga's 2-disc version of "The Fame Monster" for Christmas this year.... so with any luck I'll be getting that next month *crosses fingers*

Thanks! I was torn between that and Leona Lewis' new CD (which I heard and is excellent), but I figured I'd buy the J5 CD now so I could listen to it until Christmas and then ask for Leona for Christmas since I can listen to that all year round.

Yay!! I'm getting it for Christmas if my mom pays attention to my Christmas list (though I prefer the brunette cover myself....)
Is that just "The Fame Monster" or is it the 2-Disc edition with "The Fame" as well?

2 Disc Edition.

Cool! Did you notice that the second disc is different from the original release of "The Fame?"

According to Wikipedia, the disc of "The Fame" has several songs that weren't on the original version of the album. Like "I Like it Rough," "Starstruck," "Paper Gangsta," "Disco Heaven," and "Retro, Dance, Freak."

By the way, for anyone who has the 2-disc edition, does it come with some sort of lyrics booklet? If so, is it just for the new album, or does it have something for the old stuff, too?

Yes, that's correct. There's sixteen songs on "The Fame", and then eight on "The Fame Monster" for a total of twenty-two songs.

I'll let you know about the lyrics book soon!
