We're not really fans of Christmas albums. However, two have caught our ears so far this year.
The first was by Ana Gasteyer as reported back in November, very early off the blocks and a whole lot of fun.
The second, focusing in particularly on an instrumental track, is featuring a great arrangement by alto saxophonist Sherman Irby, called 'Snowfall' by Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis on the Big Band Holidays II release. It arrives four years on from the first volume drawn from a series of 2015-2018 concerts. A very uncheesy sound and definitely worth your time.
