That Last-Minute Gift Idea

Looking for a perfect gift for that hard-to-please big band fan on your list? Consider "An Angel City Christmas," the new CD from the Angel City Big Band, featuring vocalist Bonnie Bowden. It's 11 tracks of yuletide favorites, along with "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" and the quasi-seasonal "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm."

Check out audio samples on the band's homepage:

Information about how to purchase the CD accompanies the samples. The Big Band Academy is pleased to recommend this disc with our highest enthusiasm.

I personally hope to receive a "nook," the new e-reader from Barnes & Noble:

Ever since I was 13, I've been asking Santa for some nook. I think this might be the year the big guy finally comes through.

Merry Christmas to all!
