My Christmas Album of the Year

Bela Fleck never fails to amaze and amuse. His latest with the Flecktones is a holiday album, Jingle All the Way.

It has two Grammy Nominations:

• Best Pop Instrumental
• Best Country Instrumental Performance (Sleigh Ride track)

It comes with my highest recommendation. Don't expect a traditional album, but do expect it to be a truly pleasing and entertaining soundtrack for the season.
