GUEST,kenny Favorite Trd Versions of Christmas Songs (11) RE: Favorite Trd Versions of Christmas Songs 08 Dec 15


I co-present a traditional / folk music programme called "The Wednesday Session", on "SHMU FM", the local community radio station in Aberdeen. This will be our second year of a Christmas-themed programme, on Wednesday 23rd. I've been looking for Christmas CDs for the programme, and found one a week ago which has versions of both "Good King Wenceslas" and "God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen" [sic ]. The CD title is "An English Folk Christmas", and there is a web address on the sleeve :

www.thegiftofmusic.com

Musicians are :

Ian Giles - voice [soloist ] and drum
John Spiers - melodeon and tenor
Jon Bowden - fiddle and voice [ soloist ]
Giles Lewin - fiddle, pipes, flute and voice

I think that may be quite close to what the original poster is looking for. Just had a look and there are several available for sale on eBay.
