Description
The Pasadena Roof Orchestra presents its very first Christmas Album. All the tracks are carefully selected Christmas favourites drawn from the Orchestra's extensive repertoire, and capture the very essence of a vintage Christmas celebration.
A Christmas album from an established artist is normally high up on the recording agenda. In this respect it might be fair to say this album is somewhat overdue, especially as the Orchestra had a radio hit with "White Christmas" in the 70s. A little research into seasonal songs from the 20s, 30s and 40s reveals a wealth of material, and whilst some of these tracks will be very familiar, others not so. "It's Winter Again" or "I'm Going Home For Christmas" for example are welcome new additions to a Christmas playlist.
The styles on this album range from a pure Norman Rockwell like "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" to an out and out swinging Dorsey style "Santa Claus is Coming to Town". It starts with a Simon Townley inspired "Christmas Stomp" – listeners who can spot all the tunes in this medley can award themselves an extra mince pie!
