Seasonal Music.

Here you go, here’s a rare bit of Christmas music I can recommend (at least, it’s from the Chieftains’ Bells of Dublin album and it says ‘Christmas Eve’ in brackets, so I suppose it must have something to do with Christmas.) Whatever its provenance or association, I can at least aver that it’s jolly, foot-stompingly pleasant, and unashamedly Irish in character.

My one regret is that there’s no accompanying video of long-legged step dancing colleens. If there were, the album could be re-titled The Belles of Dublin and then it would come even more highly recommended.
