Thought I better start sharing Christmas music. Music by all the great jazz artists (1962) on Colombia Records.
I found this album over 40 years ago at the Planned Parenthood sale. They were some amazing finds back then.

Another 60s star is gone.
Said Alice Cooper of Flo and Eddie.

“Truly, two of the most talented guys I’ve ever worked with,” Mr. Cooper was quoted as saying in “Happy Forever.” “They had such pure voices. Everybody wanted to work with Mark and Howard because they were so much fun. They’d walk in a room, and it was party time. And I don’t mean drug party — I mean they were fun. ”
