Carl Sandburg Visits Me In A Dream

Here ye, here ye! I just finished up with quite a hectic week, and I can’t tell you how excited I am for this weekend! Plus it’s my birthday, but you don’t want to hear about that.

I thought I’d bring in a little holiday cheer with some tracks from the new Verve Remixed: Christmas collection.  Your favorite remix artists take on old jazz and blues standards by the likes of Nina Simone and Louis Armstrong, and infuse them with backbeats and ’strange’ new noises.  It’s more a winter collection than a holiday collection, I’d say, but take a look for yourself.  Buy a copy of Verve Remixed: Christmas.

Listen to Nina Simone - “Chilly Winds (Fink Remix)”

Listen to Count Basie - “Good Morning Blues (Real Tuesday Weld Clerkenwell Remix)“
