Harping On Christmas Four

I've saved the best harp record for last, and that's because of some non-harp bits that are stuck into the track listing. Those extra tracks feature percussion instruments, and I think those are the best bits here. The whole collection appears to be a production of a music school in Cleveland, Ohio. Heaven knows how I got my grubby mitts on it, but there it was one day in the collection. This is Festive Christmas (Cleveland Institute Of Music CIM-001, Stereo). Hope you enjoyed this last Super Saturday here before Christmas. Not sure if any of the other Saturdays around here will be super, but at least they should be themed. I don't think I've done enough theme days around here this year. Seems really hard to come up with a large enough set of records to set a theme for the day. Of course some of that's is my fault for not doing enough organizing ahead of time.
