You’re welcome! Another great pull by KMHD.org.
December is almost here and that means it’s time for my annual crusade to bring back “Christmas Will Really Be Christmas” by Lou Rawls. The song is 55 years old and more true now than ever.
The best Christmas album? Gotta be Lou Rawls. Dig the production and the real players on this particular tune which has become an EPB annual tradition.
I caught this on the local jazz station a few days ago. Called “Christmas Will Really Be Christmas,” this 1967 tune is an extraordinary Christmas meditation which deserves some reconsideration in 2015. As one friend described it, “Damn man, this really is a stone groove. Totally dig it.”
