"What can I say about Barry Gordon's wonderful CD, other than, it's perfect.Gordon's solo jazz piano renditions of classic Christmas songs certainly swings, but they are also the perfect mood setter for Christmas dinner parties or a quiet Christmas Eve by the fire with someone special.Gordon takes the listener from a classic Christmas melody to a playful improvosation, and then back again. His interpretations of the intimacy connected with these songs are flawless.Trust me; add "Santa Swings" to your Christmas music selection, and you and yours will have a merry and bright holiday season. Barry Gordon's Christmas album will go down as smooth as eggnog, with a touch of nutmeg."
