This is interesting... 

An HQ 6 GB (!?) upload of Kind of Blue... didn't know you could upload files that big onto Youtube.  Still, don't think I can tell the difference on the mini-hifi unit I'm using right now.

I was saving my Christmas choices for later this month! But if you must! 

My all-time fav Christmas album...

 

[raburns04]

Wow, didn't know there was such a strong Jazz thread on the forum, can't wait to run through this. Wanted to come in and shout my favorite album of 2012 - Ahmad Jamal's Blue Moon.

 

[Sinner]

^ Not many of us in here, but think the boys do a fine job holding down the fort!

Anyway, continuing... Vince Guaraldi's Christmas Time Is Here is also one of my favs as well... 

While I'm not sure if this is really a "Christmas" song, I definitely think it's got that feel to it...

Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving, I'm stuck here in Montgomery at my Aunts house just rummaging through youtube looking for new music.

Also, the site rappamelo.com is renovating and dude is taking down all the links he had. They're still up for now, so if you want a bunch of free great jazz music I suggest you raid the site asap before they get taken down:
