JazzMando What's New - You might not have known it, but site author Ted Eschliman in his pre-mando days recorded a keyboard instrumental jazz Christmas CD, "An Urban Christmas" way back in 1991. The synth-based, self-produced project enjoyed moderate regional success having air play in the cities of Lincoln, Omaha, Kansas City, and Minneapolis, and achieved national critical acclaim. CCM writer Bruce A. Brown wrote "Eschliman has issued one of this season's better independent releases. There's a clever sprightliness and elfin mischief to many of his arrangements.... Worth searching for."
Unfortuanately, the CD is no longer in print, but six of the ten original tracks have been posted for listening and download on a special MySpace web page for your enjoyment. Give it a listen and if you have a MySpace account, sign it up as a friend and pass the word.
