Tony Bennett lets the beat do much of the work on A Swingin' Christmas, placing his lines with the easy assurance of a singer who knows exactly where the band will land. The Count Basie ensemble supplies warm brass, rhythmic lift and room for the vocal. Seasonal favorites become small, lively conversations between singer and orchestra.
