RING-A-LING-A-LING-A-DING-DONG-DING!

The first of many jazz vocal mixes featuring cuts from the 40s through the 60s - the majority of these tunes are from either the Verve label or Capital Records. Some contemporary favorites are mixed in (Anita, Emmylou, Marcus) since they fit the mood of the mix. I also threw in one of the best songs ever to surface in an animated holiday special.
