This has been my favorite for some time now. Features strong vocals by Sarah McLachlan.  Old song with a modern  rendition.  Of course it is years old itself

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

The lead singer was a heavy smoker and died of lung cancer when she was 40. I wonder if she got coal in her stocking? Or just tar in her lungs?

I have this CD by Ethan James, The Ancient Music of Christmas. He was member of Blue Cheer, a record producer, recording engineer, and master of the hurdy gurdy who also played the symphonium. On this album of ancient holiday carols he plays the hurdy-gurdy, saz (a Middle eastern lute), and guitar. He's accompanied only by Catherine Alexander, whoever she may be, on percussion. It couldn't be much more different from Summertime Blues.

I tried posting the playlist for the album but can't. If you scroll down slightly on this page to Albums you can click to play all 15 songs.

Here's the first song.

And because I'm not tired of it yet I'll add Emerson, Lake & Palmer.
