Lots of Christmas music around, and like my post the other day I’m hearing tunes I’ve always liked but never knew what they were or who did them. Today I heard an arrangement of “I heard The Bells On Christmas Day” that I’ve heard a number of times since my youth and never knew who did it until it came up on my parents’ Music Choice station and I was pleasantly surprised to see it was by Bert Kaempfert from his Christmas Wonderland” release. I love the picked thunking bass line throughout. Too bad there’s no YouTube video so you can’t hear the whole thing. But trust me, it’s bluesy and good. I’ve always enjoyed Kaempfert’s arrangements ever since hearing his classic “Wonderland By Night” (featuring the same kind of bass line mentioned above, BTW) for the first time. So that’s pretty cool.
I liked nearly all the samples from Christmas Wonderland so it looks like that might have to make my Christmas listening list for next year. Happy music for a happy season.
