Irish Descendants - In Praise of Christmas

[gdgest]

This is a variant of a traditional English Christmas carol, Drive The Cold Winter Away, published in Wit And Mirth: Or Pills To Purge Melancholy, a large collection of songs by Thomas d'Urfey, 1719. It was arranged and recorded by the Irish Descendants as track #3 on their 2001 CD, The Gift (Sextant Records, Markham, Ontario, recorded and mixed at Cool Blue Studios, St. John's, NL, produced by the Irish Descendants and distributed by EMI Music Canada). Thanks for sharing this ancient carol. :-)
