I am listening to an anthology I made called Jazz Christmas Anthology 2. It is not a good title, but the CD is very good, featuring the following:

Bobby Watson
Chet Baker
John Scofield
Wynton Marsalis
Oscar Peterson
Ray Brown Trio
George Shearing
Jimmy McGriff
Louie Bellson
Ramsey Lewis
Billy Taylor

Peace and goodwill.

Now I am listening to Larry Carlton's Christmas at My House, a CD with several different types of grooves, which is right up my alley. Peace and goodwill.

Andrew Neu - Try Something Neu

A solution of a sax player to receive your attention.

I am listening to the tracks I downloaded form Boney James's Christmas Present. Peace and goodwill.
