"Comfort & Joy" follows on from the band's first acclaimed album with more of their characteristic treatment of traditional Christmas tunes. Julie Matthews performs a stunning and yet sensitive version of "Silent Night". Chris While offers several vocal classics including a brand new version of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen". Chris Leslie contributes a mesmeric Breton instrumental, "Boules et Guirlandes" and David Hughes's syncopated guitar work underpins an exciting array of seasonal fare. We only have a limited number of this CD, so it will not be available on the 2003 tour.
Some of these tracks were part of last year's concert repertoire, which were missing from album one, including the electrifying "Away In A Manger". All in all, a sensational addition to the St Agnes Fountain canon.
