黑人靈魂歌手雷‧查爾斯說：『每一天當我聽到貝西伯爵的音樂，就好像在過聖誕節。』所有音樂皆能怡情雅興，但唯有爵士樂千變萬化。貝西伯爵大樂團最特別的地方，就是音樂中的喜悅靈感幾乎是源源不絕。有時候他們被稱為藍調大樂團，但貝西伯爵卻讓藍調的哀愁轉成獨有的能量。就像四月的巴黎、十月的棒球或是草莓與巧克力，而爵士樂就是貝西伯爵大樂團。

2013年上任為樂團總監的小號手Scotty Barnhart，本著過去樂團最堅強的傳統，數千份的樂譜以及上百首膾炙人口的經典樂曲，2015年正是貝西伯爵大樂團80週年紀念，因此他決定為樂迷，帶來最佳的聖誕節喜樂。其中就是編曲保有Sammy Nestico的經典原味，也有現任另一位小號手Kris Johnson與Scotty自己的編曲。因此音樂表現就像樂團縮影，像傳統致敬，也迎向新的局面。老牌男歌手Johnny Mathis演唱『It's The Holiday Season』與黑人女歌手Ledisi表現『The Christmas Song』，讓人感到溫馨，而紐奧良爵士鋼琴大師Ellis Marsalis與曾經演奏頑皮豹主題曲的薩克斯風手Plas Johnson等人，也為這個集結搖擺樂歡樂的聖誕專輯，帶來溫馨與喜悅。

A Very Swingin' Basie Christmas / The Count Basie Orchestra

2015 marked the 80th Anniversary of The Count Basie Orchestra. Following the successful release of this album last Christmas, we'William "Count" Basie (1904-1984) started his orchestra in Kansas City in 1935, and proceeded to develop and maintain one of the greatest jazz orchestras in music history. With Mr. Basie's meticulous attention to detail, selecting the very best musicians, and making sure that every tune could be danced to, The Count Basie Orchestra soon became the favorite for everyone to listen and dance to with its irresistible "Kansas City stomp" style. Today, under the leadership of its Director, Scotty Barnhart, The Count Basie Orchestra is traveling the world celebrating its 80th Anniversary and continuing the excellent standards in swinging and shouting the blues with precision, and continuing to be "The Most Explosive Force In Jazz." In celebration of the 80th Anniversary, The Count Basie Orchestra releases its first Christmas album, A Very Swingin' Basie Christmas! The 19-piece band is accompanied with the guest vocals of Johnny Mathis on "It's The Holiday Season", Ledisi on "The Christmas Song" and Carmen Bradford on "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." Additionally, Ellis Marsalis (Piano) and Plas Johnson (saxophone) are guest musicians on "I'll Be Home For Christmas.
