This Christmas LP is quite enjoyable due in large part to the notable personel:
Jim Galloway on soprano, the brilliant stride pianist
Ralph Sutton, bassist
Milt Hinton and drummer
Gus Johnson. Despite the absence of "Jingle Bells," this is a well-rounded set of swing-oriented jazz with highlights including "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Winter Wonderland," "Santa Claus Came in the Spring" and "Let It Snow." ~ Scott Yanow
