One I like is "A Stan Kenton Christmas" by the Capitol Bones Big Band, 
directed by Mark Taylor. In addition to some of the original Kenton/Ralph 
Carmichael Charts, it includes several new charts arranged by 'bonist Matt 
Niess and other band members.

I've had it for three or four years so check their web site 
www.thecapitolbones.com  for availability.

I look forward to getting a copy of "Carols from the Bells".
