An overlooked (Christmas) cover tune CLIX

Thanks to the "Echoes" program on WXPN last night, I heard an endearing version of "The Holly And The Ivy" that was new to me.  Al Petteway and Amy White sound like folky new age troubadours on the track, with guitar and mandolin being played at a faster clip than many versions.  It was an interesting stylistic decision not to have vocals until the last verse, but it works.  The carol's warmth shines through in their unique arrangement.
