Eight familiar Christmas standards are infused with the rhythms and harmonies of Jazz creating a rich collage of sounds. We Three Kings is a hard-driving minor blues in 6/8 time. O Little Town of Bethlehem and Silent Night swell with jazz harmonies and progressions. The voice of Cheryl Barnes puts the soul into Silent Night. Billy Mitchell's arrangements, the talent of Laroon Holt on classical trumpet and jazz flugelhorn, and Patrick Plunkett on tenor sax create a unique album of celebration and nostalgia.

Produced by Billy Mitchell, 1984 Noran Records
