I don't think I've shared any jazz with you this season, mostly because it's hard to find, and what is out there has all been discovered and released. But this little record on the World Jazz label seems to have slipped through the cracks of time. or maybe it's stuck in some sort of purgatory since the artists have other Christmas music out there for download, but not this. Anyhow, it's a little outside my normal timeframe of interest, but when I saw that cover it reminded me a great Christmas record from
Jerry Fielding, so I couldn't pass it up. Take a few minutes and have a listen to
The Jim Cullum Jazz Band-
'Tis The Season To Be Jammin'! (World Jazz WJLP-S-21, Stereo, 1984). You'll be glad you did.
1. Sleigh Ride
2. O Holy Night

Thanks - another new one for me!
ReplyDeleteNice!!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI love Xmas jazz!
ReplyDeleteNot a big jazz fan, but am deciding to try everything this year just in case. At least I don't loathe the organ and chimes records as much as I used to. Now they just slightly annoy me. Maybe there's hope?
ReplyDeleteOk, now this jazz I like! It's not too avant garde or free form. This one is a lot of fun. Thank you.
ReplyDeletejeepers, another gem. this makes up for some of those endless music boxes and bell ringers.
ReplyDeleteno, really. all seriousness aside, you did a yeoman's job this year.
may all your music be in red plastic.
Thanks, Ernie, for the Jim Cullum Jazz Band Christmas Album. Quite a different take on Christmas tunes... I like them!
ReplyDeleteThanks; but link is dead. ��
ReplyDeleteOK, should be back up now. Still working on getting all of the new shares from last year posted. Most of the repeats are up, but it takes forever...
ReplyDeleteLink off. REPOST IT, please, by the love of Lord in good servers as Mediafire or Mega.
ReplyDeleteNew link for 2018...

Thanks for the new link.
ReplyDeleteJust spotted this one. When I saw zippyshare my heart dropped. Thank's for the reupload.
ReplyDeleteThe file hosting services don't last forever, they seem to go like sand through an hourglass. Thankfully MEGA has been a bit longer-lived, which is why I'm doing all the flashback posts this year. Not much point in sending people to all these old posts if there are no downloads to be had...
ReplyDeleteLove this find! Thank you for consistently surfacing so many gems, always something original. Your efforts are much appreciated around our house!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know you've discovered something from the archives. There's lots of goodies back in these back pages, but I don't think too many people dig around through them. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteabove is the link to the lp, released on cd in 2000 with bonus tracks.
I'll have to see if I can track that down, seems to be hard to find these days. Bonus tracks look to have been new recordings from 2000.
