mikeweil Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 I know one track from the Scott Hamilton - is the string orchestra on the whole disc? I welcome any recommendation, not only jazz, but blues and soul as well. Will look for the Huey Smith next season. 16 hours ago, rpklich said: Although not jazz Huey Piano Smith did a pretty xmas lp.

Yes, it's a "with strings" Christmas CD and it's what makes it a late night favorite in my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 yeah, those Ayler Xmas CDs are excellent. I saw the Witches & Devils version of this once, with McPhee, Cline, Corsano, and I'm blanking on who the bassist was. Really wonderful.

Milestones Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Anyone familiar with Joey Defrancesco Christmas--Home for the Holidays. It's two discs, and it's not bad--just been delving into a bit. There's a smoking version of "We Three Kings."  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
