O’s Notes: If you like Nnenna’s jazz vocals, you’ll enjoy for take on the Holiday classics. Freelon approaches Christmas carols with her characteristic scatting, vocalese and soulful singing. Support comes from the John Brown Big Band, a tight unit that fits well with Nnenna’s style. We enjoyed “Christmas Time Is Here”, “Silent Night” and especially “Baby It’s Cold Outside” with John adding vocals.
