I've been enjoying Erik's recordings the last couple days. Collectors' Choice Music has reissued his self-titled Elektra album, and you can hear several cuts from his Christmas album at http://www.erikdarling.com/.

I didn't realize how well "The Night Before Christmas" fits the tune to "Sweet Betsy From Pike." I'm going to add Erik's version to my repertoire.

Rest in peace, Erik.
