Here’s a rare (these days) jazz Christmas music release. Warren Wolf is a fabulous jazz vibraphonist. Listen to “Skating” (below). It’s the perfect vehicle for Wolf’s vibes. Note that Wolf also plays all the piano on the album…
Asked why he decided to record an album of Christmas songs, Wolf offered a unique and honest answer: “peer pressure.”
- Don Lundell
PS. When you have a few minutes, listen to Wolf’s cover of Herbie Hancock “Maiden Voyage,” which is in my list of Top 5 [maybe 3] jazz tunes. Wolf’s version pays homage to Bobby Hutcherson’s version, but I digress.
