I don't know if I'll get round to hearing any of it, so will keep an open mind
I'd anticipate a similar listening experience to last winter's Sting CD "If On A Winter's Night"
which was not entirely that bad.

What I have been listening to and enjoying despite their reported posh elite personal backgrounds
[or perhaps it could only have been created because of such a privileged milieux ??]
is "Joy To The World" by Pink Martini -
a retro kitsch upper class American Band, delivering exquisite nostalgic easy listening sounds
I just can't resist.

yeah.. life's full of surprising contradictions... !!!???

Though the most very special CD for my xmas is "The Holly Bears The Crown"
by The Young Tradition with Shirley and Dolly Collins;

now which box has it been stored in the last 12 months..??
