i drive my granddaughter to school every morning and she requests song number three, my favorite things. she is seven years old and is trying to sing every lick that lisa sings. she finally memorized all the lyrics. she even trys to imitate the red violin in the beginning.

I have never heard Christmas Songs sing and played so harmonically and smooth. Lisa Gay's voice brings it all out, and the band is soulful, jazzy, funky and puts you right into the Christmas spirit...I love every song on this CD and I salute Lisa Gay, Tony Drake, Mark Cargill, Louis Van Taylor, Andrew Carney, J.V. collier, Larry Washington, Gregory Cook, not to mention Raymond Pounds, John Hart, Quentin Dennard, and Charles Owens ... just to name a few! Congratulations Lisa Gay and Thrill!

Get out your pen and add this CD to your Christmas list, both to give and receive.

The arrangements are outstanding showcasing Lisa's amazing voice and her distinctive jazzy style, as well as highlighting each of the talented musicians individuality. From old standards to modern well loved songs, this CD is a must-have, fun to give, listen to over and over, going down in history type of production. Listen for yourself and see what I'm talking about! Kudos to Lisa Gay and the Gentlemen of Thrill for a wonderful addition to my Christmas music collection.

This is truly on of the best Christmas collections around. Lisa Gay & Thrill are one of LA's best kepsecrets, but that secret is now out. This ensemble has asembled a wide-ranging batch of holiday favorites served up THRILL style. Meaning all the tracks are in the pocket, skillfully arranged ad performed by a stellar band whose time has come. "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" never sounded so funky. "What Are You Doing For New Years?" features a heartfelt, beautiful and soulful vocal by Lisa Gay, a veteran vocalist now doing it on her own terms. Strings by Grammy winner Mark Cargil surround and envelop but never overpower the band or vocalist. These players put a whole new meaning in Soulful Christmas, indeed. A No. 1 With A Bullit stocking stuffer!
