Pete Fountain, 1967 \u2014 Nothing says \u201crock\u201d like a clarinet solo, so if you\u2019re Pete Fountain and you find yourself making a Christmas record, Jingle Bell Rock is the obvious choice. I love how the vocals come in at seemingly random intervals, and then just as you\u2019re ready to start singing along \u2014 BAM! \u2014 more clarinet. That\u2019s Pete\u2019s gift to the world: more clarinet. Thanks, Pete.
