Search - Bill Augustine, Malcolm Cecil :: Merry Jazzy Xmas

Well worth buying if you can find it.

"This is real musicianship, you don't have to like Christmas music to like this. A recording of only acoustic piano and bass might seem light, until you hear it. It fills the room and more. This will agree with any jazz listener or fan of these instruments or fan of the classic holiday standards. I listen to it year-round, it's plain good. Your guests will ask you about it and you'll be a hit if you bring it to the party."

Absolutely perfect!

"The whole collection gives a warm, festive, sitting in front of an open fire, feeling. Augustine(Piano) and Cecil(up-right Bass) composed some of the nicest variations on these familiar Christmas classics I've ever heard. Up-lifting yet un-obtrusive at the same time. There is a similiarity to the "Peanuts, christmas time is here" but Augustine and Cecil are an increadible team that play off of each other more effectively.
I highly recomend this for Jazz lovers of all fields from Standard to Acid. I personaly am looking for more of thier works. Oh yeah,I forgot, Its just Bass and Piano nothing else!"
