Moments Worth Listening For
The signature brass fanfare that injects a jazz-rock urgency into the traditional melody of Little Drummer Boy.
The smooth, late-night lounge piano introduction to The Christmas Song that transitions into a lush, full-band swell.
The bright, rhythmic interplay between the percussion and the horn section during the bridge of Feliz Navidad.
