O’s Notes: Female, steel drummer Joy Lapps spreads the Holiday cheer on Caribbean Christmas Mixtape, Vol 1. The journey begins with “Soca Sleigh Ride” and includes classics like “O Little Town Of Bethlehem”, “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, and “Little Drummer Boy”, one of a few vocal tracks featuring Subria Lapps. And we especially enjoyed the reggae beats on “Carol Of The Bells”!
