9 December 2014 - ITTTSSSS CHRISSTTMMMAASSSSS (said Noddy) so some Folkie Xmas tunes this week

Hi all

I've been feverishly downloading dropbox and MP3 files you've all been sending me and many thanks tooo as there's some crackin' tunes there.  And as its Christmas (never start a sentence with And or But, sorry) here is the first week of 3 shows with some lovely little folk and blues ditties for your shell likes..... this week I've mostly been playing Folk tunes so next week its the blues then folk and blues... I think you get the idea.

Folk Stock records sent me a beautiful collection of tunes called 'The Christmas Presents' so my favourites from there.  Jo Bywater sent me her new Christmas single called 'Christmas Comes Home' so a play out for that as well.

Hi all

Not much to say for this week's show, but a note of condolence goes out to John Kirkpatrick as his wife passed away last week.  'What's in the Post?' is back and a couple of crackly old blues tunes dug out of the depths to listen to.  Hope you enjoy the show.
