This is how you lay down a beat and make a Christmas carol hip without disrespecting its melody. Gregg Karukas performs "Greensleeves" on the piano, making it jazzy, with just enough of a hip-hop bounce in its step. It's close to how Incognito or Soulive might have covered it, which I consider a plus. Hearing "What Child Is This?" in this new light last night reminded me that I should revisit some of the Karukas tunes we used to play on KNJZ.
