Sing We All Merrily—A Colonial Christmas
"There is artistry here and a faith in the material that compels you to play these old lyrics over and over again...a gem of a disc."

 Colonial Homes Magazine

 

"The best new Christmas album of the last few years. Linda Russell's majestic voice makes for stirring renditions of these old English hymns, French carols, Welsh tunes and American compositions."
 The Utne Reader
