notes

Tom&Co began life in the 90's, and has performed over 60 times a year since. Tom&Co is the praise band for Vineville North Baptist - but this stuff is DEFINITELY not your typical church music! A bit of jazz here, some soulful sax there, some kickin' grooves over yonder, tons of creativity - and you've got a duke's mixture of styles that will keep your toes tappin'. This is some great music for both Christmas and Easter!

Like the cover says - this is creative instrumental contemporary fun for your feet that is sonically surprising and bodacious for your brain!

------

Come Thou Long Expected Jesus - uptempo smooth jazz, with a great build

Emmanuel - peaceful solo piano, then the band kicks in!

Silent Night - a hodgepodge opening and a silky-smooth adult contemporary sound.

Gentle Mary Laid Her Child - (aka Good King Wenceslas). Soaring sax over a peaceful synth bed

What Child Is This? - RnR version of the famous question

Venite - "O Come Let Us Adore Him", if you aren't up on your Latin. Can New Age and Adult Contemporary be combined? Listen and find out!.

Three Kings - First we start in with a Renaissance opener, then check out a Pipe organ in a jazz club, and then hear some seriously toe-tapping contemporary jazz along with some solo piano. This arrangement awas actually inspired by a Christmas special from the California Raisins from waaay back!

At the Cross - Reflective solo piano. Yes, it's jazz, but sure doesn't sound like it!

Christ the Lord is Risn' Today - straight ahead guitar-less pop

Jesus Paid It All - reflective, then uptempo

I surrender All - smoky jazz club swing

All Creatures of our God - Nashville Pop. You'll know what that means when the brass come in. (Danny Davis, anyone?)

My Father's World - Pop, with a surprise ending

Joyful, again! - The theme from Beethoven's 9th symphony, (aka joyful Joyful We Adore Thee), in a 6/8 swing and a 5/4 uptempo Spyrogyro-like version complete with a cameo appearance of a traditional American folk tune.

    LOVE all the Christmas tunes on this album. I like how the music doesn't sound like anything else - these guys do some different things with all of those old traditional Christmas songs.

  • Heard it in Australia

    Extremely enjoyable - never a dull moment with this band! Great musicianship, and a surprise every few seconds, if you're really listening! Great music for backgroun, or even soundtracks as well! You NEED to listen with headphones - there's a bunch of stuff "behind the scenes" that you miss with speakers!
