Podcast #5: Chrimbo Dinbo

Well how do! Merry Christmas all, and a Happy New Year to you. To tide you over the protracted holidays of this time of year, how's about a carefully chosen and tastefully arranged podcast to keep you going? We have some fine music from some of the best albums of the year, and lots of wittering and blethering. Awesome. All tracks are, as usual, my definition of podsafe, so are used either with permission or are downloadable/streamable for free elsewhere. Betty says Happy Christmas!
