The Chieftains -- "Bells of Dublin"
NPR did a lengthy review/interview about the album on Christmas Eve.

| Best Christmas album of 1991 - "A Lump of Coal". Great
version of "We Three Kings" by the Odds, memorable
reading of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" by Henry
Rollins (machine guns, explosions, and random noises to
set the mood:-), and several other "alternative" versions
of familiar and not-so-familiar holiday music.

The best Christmas cd for 1991 has got to be the Home Alone soundtrack.
Great choir rendition of "O Holy Night" and Mel Torme's "A Merry Little
Christmas is also fun.

103.5 | Christmas Island | REFINE::BARKER | They're Red Hot | Wed Jan 08 1992 09:10 | 8 |
| I'll second 'Lump of Coal' being a great album - love the Crash Test
Dummies doing "The First Noel". I'll also say that "Little Drummer
Boy" by Bing & Bowie is the best version of that song ever recorded.
And I'll add Leon Redbone's "Christmas Island" as a great Christmas
album with his duet with Dr. John on "Frosty the Snowman" being the
best version of that song ever recorded (all just IMHO).

103.6 | Kenny Roger's | MEMIT::OTOOLE | | Fri Feb 21 1992 16:17 | 7 |
| I like Kenny Roger's Christmas in America, some real nice songs.
He did a great job with the title piece he also says a little prayer in
it and it is very sentimental.

103.7 | Jon Anderson? | STAR::BENSON | What is that in dog-MIPS? | Tue Dec 22 1992 09:53 | 5 |
| A friend is looking for a copy of Jon Anderson's "Three Ships," which
I believe is out of print. Anyone seen one lately (or have a spare?)
Obviously, used is OK. Thanks,
Tom
