Christmas music that doesn't suck!?
- Published on
Probably my favorite artist as of lately has made a Christmas album, in the same style as his other albums... stylish retro funky jazz. It's Christmas music that doesn't suck, I swear!

Review: One of the funkiest Holiday albums you'll ever hear -- a great set of instrumentals that's every bit as great as the other work by Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra, but which has a special Christmas focus as well! All the tunes here are familiar carols, but Shawn does them with a hip instrumental groove that's got plenty of snapping drums on the bottom -- and lots of cool flourishes from vibes, keyboards, and guitar over the top! This is definitely the right sort of CD to spice up any sort of Holiday gathering-- and it features wonderful funky takes on "Little Drummer Boy", "O Come All Ye Faithful", "Do You Hear What I Hear", "My Favorite Things", "Jingle Bells", "Deck The Halls", "Silent Night", and "Carol Of The Bells". - Dusty Groove America
