i have a pretty extensive collection of contemporary Christmas music (~50 CD's) but i just came across this gem after hearing a track on the local 'smooth jazz' radio and had to share:

Grover Washington Jr's "Breath of Heaven." simply outstanding. amazing range and phrasing, wonderful arrangements, spot-on production.

in a week, this CD has quickly risen into my 'Top 5' ranking.

i was very glad to have had the opportunity to see Grover in his last appearance at the Playboy Jazz Festival.

If you like Jethro Tull, they have just released "The Jethro Tull Christmas Album". Very nicely done renditions of traditional english Christmas tunes, along with remakes of some Christmas sounding songs of their own. Has a jazz sound and a humor to it that is definitley english. Tull is one of those bands that has gotten better with age. I am more of a classical listener these days, and I suppose it is the blending of the classical elements in Tull's music that keeps me listening to them.
