This week on Come By The Hills, It's a Featureless Christmas Feast!

I know that the word "featureless" makes the show sound dull and drab, but even though we're not having our usual special features, Come By The Hills will be chalk full of Christmas cheer this week. We'll discuss some interesting Christmas traditions and of course salute them musically as well, and we'll have a lovely reading of Dylan Thomas's "A Child's Christmas in Wales," performed of course by the poet himself.

So, if you can spare three hours and feel like celebrating Christmas with some great Celtic music and of course friendly banter, (I hope Brian Dalton hasn't trademarked that last phrase,) then join me at 8:00 PM Eastern on Christmas Night, toast the season by a roaring fire or at least by a purring computer, and let's raise a glass of something as we endeavour to show Winter who's boss for another year! It's Christmas on Come By The Hills, the Celtic Music Show, with a replay on Friday at 4:00 AM Eastern, 9:00 AM in the UK and Ireland.
