The featured album was PLEASE TO SEE THE KING - BBC SESSIONS by STEELEYE SPAN (Castle Music).  Someone has decided to release a CD of 1970-1971 cassette recordings by the seminal English folk rock band, taken from BBC radio and TV performances, and include it as a second CD with a re-release of the 1970 album, Please To See The King.  The sound quality of the BBC SESSIONS is poor, but it is interesting for historical reasons.  The following tracks were scattered through the program:

The program had something of a Christmas theme but still with a featured album, DOWN HARMONY ROAD by RAGGED BUT RIGHT (Merriweather Records).  The title is apt.  Kathy Reid-Naiman and Arnie Naiman, with friends on some tracks, present lots of great old harmony song 'classics' mostly from the 1920s and 1930s and it would require almost superhuman willpower to not sing along.  The following tracks were scattered through the program:
