25 Choice Cuts For A Stylish Holiday
Ah, I can smell it already. Can you? The turkey’s just been pulled out of the oven and its perfectly roasted scent mingles with the stuffing, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie, and the faint smell of wood burning in the living room fireplace.

Guests are seated throughout, nibbling on crackers, cheese, and pepperoni. You’re holding a perfectly made Old Fashioned in your hand.

So I’ve put together a curated list of 25 swinging jazz tunes that could vaguely be termed “Thanksgiving music.”
Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving, all!
