This year The Christmas Jug Band celebrates its 25th Anniversary and the release of its latest CD "UNCORKED." The irrev- erent CJB crew returns for this collection of soon-to-be seasonal classics led by the great Rogers tune "SANTA LOST A HO." The highly skewed combo of San Francisco/Bay Area notables captures its unique brand of holiday spirit and mirth in this CD song bag stuffed with a holiday mix of jazz, blues, folk and rock n' roll. For a little unconventional seasonal merriment, get "UNCORKED" and cel- ebrate with The Christmas Jug Band.
