RIBS TPTD: A “Jazzy” Xmas…

Our 6th and final (maybe) mix in our month-long ‘Sounds of the Season’ series here on RIBS.

Time to get a little “Jazzy” on ya!

Of all the many different variations of Christmas music that there are, I have to admit, I really like the Jazz interpretations the best. There’s something about Jazz and Christmas music that just fits together so beautifully, like they were made for each other. So, IMO, a series of Christmas mixes just wouldn’t be right if it didn’t include some Jazz (and maybe just a touch of Blues {smile}).

Our Jazz lineup today includes: the Vince Guaraldi Trio, Fourplay, Jimmy Smith, Michael Franks, Denise LaSalle (there’s that touch of Blues I mentioned), Wynton Marsalis, Dianne Reeves and more. Still got that black satin to wrap around ya? Good. Grab some eggnog (and Rum!) and get comfortable as we present to you…

A “Jazzy” Xmas!
