This Time of the Year (Columbia)

Published on December 19, 2002
A noted record producer and songwriter, Steve Tyrell found himself in impressive company following the release of his second album, Standard Time, last year, joining Harry Connick Jr. and Tony Bennett as one of the three top-selling male jazz vocalists in 2001. Now he swings into the holiday season with his first Christmas offering, This Time of the Year. Tyrell's characteristic voice resonates, rendering classics like "I'll Be Home for Christmas" with tender sentimentality and bringing his fair share of rough-edged R&B to the holiday blues of "Merry Christmas, Baby." Meanwhile, jazz legends such as trumpeter Clark Terry and harmonica player "Toots" Thielemans help spread the kind of holiday cheer that could make cold hearts grow several sizes.
