1 Holiday music maven Andy Cirzan joins Jim and Greg every Christmas to share a new collection of unique tunes for the season. By day Andy runs Jam Productions in Chicago. By night he searches through record stores, dustbins and basements to find gems for his annual compilation. And he shares a few favorites during this episode. Andy describes the first set as poppin’ soul music from the ‘60s and ‘70s. Then he brings in the straight ahead uptempo jazz featuring songs from his 2011 compilation “Swingin’ Snowflakes: Jingle Jangle Jazz Party.” Finally, we go off into the wild blue yonder and get some truly weird and wonderful Christmas songs.
