Holiday Greetings!

Ever since I started playing jazz on the radio an annual tradition would be my Christmas Jazz program. In the early years the music choices were limited to Stan Kenton's Christmas, the soundtrack to "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and the Ellington Nutcracker Suite. Times sure have changed with just about every artist in the business releasing a holiday collection.

In 2005 when I resumed production of My Favorite Things as an online program I produced a Christmas program. In the one-hour show I was able to survey some new and some old recordings, including Louis Armstrong reading "The Night Before Christmas."

I post here a link to that program with best wishes for a Cool Yule and a Swingin' New Year.

ENJOY!
