Jazz To The World – A Christmas Collection

CD (Item 540543) Blue Note, 1995 — Condition: Used
Out Of Stock

CD

✈
A modern-styled take on the Holiday jazz sound – one that features a range of Blue Note artists from the early 90s, plus other guest players helping to expand the overall feel of the set! Most of the numbers are traditional Christmas tunes – either secular or spiritual – sung and played in a relaxed, small group setting. And despite the late date of the recording, most of the work is relatively under-produced – not as slick as you might think. Titles include "The Christmas Waltz" by The Brecker Brothers with Steve Khan, "The Little Drummer Boy" by Cassandra Wilson, "It Came Upon A Midnight Clear" by Fourplay, "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" by Diana Krall, "Winter Wonderland" by Herb Albert & Jeff Lorber, "I'll Be Home For Christmas" by Herbie Hancock & Eliane Elias, "Christmas Blues" by Holly Cole, "The Christmas Song" by Anita Baker, and "Winter Wonderland" by Dave Koz.  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
