I was looking for my favorite version of this song. I asked my dad about it, only knowing the name of the song and a few others on the album. He said he had no recollection... and then within two minutes had come up with the name of the artist, the name of the album, the name of the label, the names of a couple of guys who had played on it, and that he'd once worked with the tuba player, who was brilliant, but not so much with the punctuality.
If you're ever looking for an explanation of how my brain works, you know whose genes are to blame.
Unfortunately, I still can't find Eddy Davis' rendition. Next year, maybe. Until then, here's the Hotlanta Trio.
Santa Claus Blues
