RIBS TPTD: A ‘Funky’ Christmas…

Ahhh… Christmas time and Christmas music! Next to the start of the baseball season it’s my favorite time of year.

As promised, we’re continuing to give you the “Sounds of the Season” here on RIBS. This week we leave behind the sad/broken-hearted side of Christmas that (unfortunately) many folks experience during the holiday season and turn our attention to a little Christmas “soul music”. And not just any old soulful renditions of Christmas songs, but songs with a funky beat that you could party and dance to while getting your holiday spirit (or “spirits” *smile*) on!

Hopefully you will enjoy this collection that I call…

A ‘Funky’ Christmas!

…and don’t worry, it’s NOT a bunch of the same old uptempo R&B Christmas tunes that we usually hear over and over and over again on the radio!
