Dr. Bobby Rodriguez is a superb, high-energy trumpet player as well as a dynamic and charismatic leader, gifted composer and skilled arranger and on "Christmas Time Baby," he enhances the standard Christmas repertoire with his unique breed of Blues/LatinJazz. Playing with the fiery passion which distinguishes all of his work, Rodriguez and his 23 piece orchestra present his original Christmas song featuring Barbara Morrison in a hot rhythmic setting. While completely fresh, "Christmas Time Baby" will find a permanent home next to Nat King Cole's, The Christmas Song and Johnny Mathis,' Merry Christmas. Like these classic recordings, "Christmas Time Baby" will help us all build many fond Christmas memories in years to come. Dr. Bobby says it best, "It's time for happy thoughts and a time to remind your family that you love them. It's a time to give." For future generations, he leaves this message, "Go with your heart, it never lies." We are fortunate that Dr. Bobby Rodriguez followed his own heart, resulting in the creation of this recording. It is a powerful gift from him to us. Enjoy "Christmas Time Baby." Feliz Navidad! Jose Rizo Jazz Radio KKJZ FM 88.1 "Jazz On The Latin Side" Long Beach, California
