Harping On And On

An old share that I remember having to hunt after for a long time before I finally found the album.  I've always been a fan of Christmas music performed on the harp (Bianco was one of my earliest shares), but I'm afraid this one didn't do much for me.  I think maybe he was trying to squeeze in too many songs, and the arrangements aren't very engaging.  But it's worth a listen or two, and I've re-encoded it this year so it sounds a little better.  From the 2012 sharity season, this is Robert Maxwell And His Harp-40 All-Time Christmas Favorites (Lion (MGM) L70081, Mono, 1958).
