Ho-Ho-Ho

Best wishes for a very Merry Christmas from the Jazz Notes staff.

This year we have some vintage musical cheer to share from among our holiday favorites.

Three to Get Merry, in fact.
 

• The Ella Fitzgerald classic “Santa Claus Got Stuck in My Chimney” is hard to top for its whimsical double entendre and holiday spirit.

• Blues queen Shemekia Copeland has a winner with her soon-to-be-classic “Stay A Little Longer, Santa,” co-written with John Hahn and Gaetano “Dante” Lattanzi.

 

 

• And this holiday would not be complete without the delightful animated video of The Platters’ doo-wopping their way through “White Christmas.”

Enjoy
