Wishing all my readers the compliments of the season. Check out the coolest version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town you will ever hear…..

It’s Lou Rawls, who also does an awesome version of The Little Drummer Boy (par up up um pum). The usual source has this to say about him:

Louis Allen “Lou” Rawls (December 1, 1933[1] – January 6, 2006) was an American soul, jazz, and blues singer. He was known for his smooth vocal style: Frank Sinatra once said that Rawls had “the classiest singing and silkiest chops in the singing game”. Rawls released more than 70 albums, sold more than 40 million records, appeared as an actor in motion pictures and on television, and voiced-over many cartoons. He had been called “The Funkiest Man Alive”.

See y’all soon….. 2010 is going to be very big round these here parts.
