Here's an hour plus of uninterrupted jazz, our present to you, intended to get you through that last minute shopping, tree trimming, gift wrapping, and egg nog guzzling. I've mixed in a few of this year's newest Christmas Jazz releases to give you something different, plus a number of old favorites.
Hopefully you have been able to enjoy the Holiday season. Here's hoping Santy is good to you, and that you are good to one another. We need a little Christmas now!
