I think you'll dig it, Hec. "Bold Orion" is a good song for taking a long walk on a cold starry winter night, and her version of "Auld Lang Syne" has a real ache to it. My favorite song on the album might be "When All the Songs Were Sad." It's a real cold-weather, dark-night, low-light kind of album.

It's one of my favorites too! Partly because I love the way it shows up in A Child's Christmas in Wales, but it's also just a really beautiful song.

It's in When the Dark is Rising too, right?

Hec, I'd love any of the mixes when you are done with them.

But of course!

I'll announce in Music when I've got them ready to Dropbox.

Could someone remind me again how I will get to those musical goodies? Gracias.

That sounds right to me, but I can't remember exactly how/why it turns up. Will have to get out my copy when I get home tonight.

It's at the Hall. Will and his siblings are caroling, and as they sing Good King Wenceslas Will and his mentor go back in time to continue Will's training.

Do you mean the gmail account we used to share songs?

I haven't used that in a long while. I've just been doing whole mixes, zipping them up, and providing a Dropbox link when people say they want it.

I like Carol of the Bells, though that's probably because I sang it in school chorus practically every year. (It's one of the very few songs that just about everybody involved in the "What songs should public school children sing at the winter concert?" debate can approve of -- it's traditional, it contains the word Christmas, and it does not mention Jesus at all. Plus, there's an easy two-part arrangement for elementary kids, and a bunch of more complicated arrangements for older kids.)

You know who LOVES "Carol of the Bells"? Laura! She's got multiple versions and I hit her up for a few last year.

I associate it primarily with Aste Spumanti.

cowboy boots that were decorated with black rhinestones. This worries me.

Clearly, you were channeling me. grabbyhands

Seriously, I bought these boots [link] a couple of months ago, and they are my favorite boots by far.
