Here is a good portion of X-mas jazz which swings

My favorite one:

Gets a spin every year for many years. Simply Ella swinging.

Ho hum ...
I KNOW records like those by the Carpenters would make my Christmas unbearable ... and several others on this listing would be a borderline case with me too.

But tastes differ anyway ...
So I guess I'll spin this one again for now:

Just stepped over this in the Tom Lord Disco - has anyone here heard this? Can't find it on the web ...

Go tell it on the mountain            -

God rest ye merry, gentlemen            -

Hark! The herald angels sing            -

Away in a manger            -

Frosty the snowman            -

Jingle bells            -

What child is this?            -

Deck the halls            -

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!            -

We three kings            -

Good King Wenceslas - Cool King Wenceslas            -

The little drummer boy            -

O holy night     -

Additionally, I really like Mars Williams' An Albert Ayler Xmas series-now up to four volumes!

Anyone familiar with Joey Defrancesco Christmas--Home for the Holidays. It's two discs, and it's not bad--just been delving into a bit.  There's a smoking version of "We Three Kings."

 

I'm still surprised that this 2-CD set has never been reissued. It's virtually gone on the market. There's been one for sale on discogs for crazy money for several years and the history shows only one sold.

You would think Joey's estate would put this out.

I think this year I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy the mp3 downloads from Amazon.
