I just received this through a Google alert for Phil Stacey. I am one of his "Philnatics," and I am so excited to hear him! He is an excellent singer, and has proven recently, at the "Lighting of the Green" at Lipscomb University, that he can do beautiful renditions of Christmas carols. And having been in choirs myself, it is so wonderful to hear some young people's voices. I will make sure I get me a copy, and if my funds allow me, get one for at least one loved one.

This is great! The renditions of these tradtional songs put a great spin on christmas music. Well done. Especially loved "Hark the Herald Angels Sing".
