Mannheim Steamroller Discography
I tuned in for the medieval rock & roll of the Fresh Aire albums, then took a holiday from them after the first Christmas album.

Mannheim Steamroller: Fresh Aire (1975)
Chip Davis calls it 18th century rock and roll. I call it a breath of fresh air.
-
[Review] Mannheim Steamroller: Fresh Aire II (1977)
A medieval romp mixed with melodic new age from the heady days of audiophilia.
-
[Review] Mannheim Steamroller: Fresh Aire III (1979)
Their third is their most charming, a symphony of strings and insects’ wings.
-
[Review] Mannheim Steamroller: Fresh Aire 4 (1981)
The last of the four seasons, winter, gets a warm treatment on the Steamroller’s fourth album.
-
Mannheim Steamroller: Fresh Aire V (1983)
Chip Davis turns his composer’s eye from the four seasons to one of the earliest science fiction works, Johannes Kepler’s Somnium.
-
[Review] Mannheim Steamroller: Christmas (1984)
The ghosts of Christmas past, present and future meet in these proggish rides and medieval romps.
-
Mannheim Steamroller: Saving the Wildlife (1986)
No animals were harmed in the recording of this album, although I’m not sure many were saved either.
