I'd be quite happy if it was Jonah Lewie - it's my favourite Christmas single as well. You can also dance some Morris to it and I believe the brass sections are taken from a Morris tune!

Ahh - flash of inspiration - did a google search - and found the following -

Jona Lewie: b. c.1943, England. A former member of Brett Marvin And The Thunderbolts and Terry Dactyl And The Dinosaurs, Lewie was one of several unconventional artists signed to the Stiff label.

Think I'll go ahead and order it then - If JL did write the songs there must be other gems there:-)

Cheers
