I think we have two concurrent threads - "My Pressie's Arrived" and "Thank You Santa." But in any case, for those who aren't following the other -

I was Kat's Santa - glad you liked the CD, Kat. I suspect the Dan Schatz CD is indeed a clue as to the identity of YOUR Santa in Maryland, Giok. In fact, I know it is.

Chanteyranger, I love the CDs you sent - the San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers CD reminds me of a project John Hartford did years ago (although in a somewhat different idiom) with many fiddlers working together. And the In Harmony's Way album is a wonderful addition to any collection. My son, not quite eight months old, now laughs uncontrollably every time the words "WHACK folla rolla rolla tura lie-o" gets sung - which is a lot, because the song sticks in one's head. What a great album! Thank you, Santa!
