Fresh off the success of Livin’ a Treme´ Life,Kermit Ruffins is ready to add a little Bourbon Street jazz to the upcomingholiday season. Produced by Grammy Winner Tracey Freeman, Have A Crazy CoolChristmas is Kermit Ruffins’ bold foray into Christmas music. The albumruns the gamut from yuletide classics like "Silent Night" and"Jingle Bells" to Kermit’s own rollicking originals like "ASaints Christmas" and "Crazy Cool Christmas." Kermit is joinedonce again by former bandmates from the Rebirth Brass Band, as well as fellowBasin Street Records recording artist Irvin Mayfield and New Orleans hotshottrombonist Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews.
Make no mistake, everything about Kermit Ruffinsexemplifies New Orleans. Residing in the town of Treme´, former home of hispredecessors Louis Prima and Louis Armstrong, he continues the big brasstradition the town is known for – Kermit plays a "sweet, sweethorn", as Michael J. Agovino of Newsweek notes. His musical stylingsresemble the culture of New Orleans, a melting pot, with Jazz, funk, standardsand hip-hop. His charisma, both onstage and on his recordings, reflects thespirit of his city. Kermit’s love for New Orleans is not just shown in hismusic. He gives back to his city not as if a necessity or chore, but as a way oflife. And Kermit’s city embraces him the same way he embraces it.

AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
This is a well-rounded set of Christmas songs played by some of Verve's top artists. Shirley Horn, Betty Carter and Abbey Lincoln take two vocals apiece, and the seven instrumentals feature such major players as trumpeters Roy Hargrove and Nicholas Payton, bassist Christian McBride, guitarist Mark Whitfield (showcased on "Soulful Jingle Bells") and pianist Stephen Scott. There is enough variety throughout the date to hold one's interest, with the versions of "Frosty the Snowman," "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" and "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" being among the hotter interpretations.
