Really pleasant. It reminds me of Brubeck.

Haven't listened yet but really looking forward to this. I have forwarded it to a friend who enjoys seasonal jazz at this time of year.

On Herbie! On Danny! On Ralphie and Kai! On Oscar! On Billy! On Osie and Joe!

Thank you so much for posting this, Orange Dinosaur Slide!

Generally I have a set selection of music I play on Christmas - a compilation CD of jazz artists playing some Christmas tunes, and Vince Gueraldi's soundtrack for A Charlie Brown Christmas. This was a nice addition that I've bookmarked for next year!
