[78-L] Danny Boy - a Christmas tune? Really?

[Cary Ginell]

There's a really nice bluegrass banjo version of "Greensleeves" played by Roger Sprung that I used to play on my radio program every Christmas, so all is not lost. And I never get tired of hearing Glenn Yarbrough sing "Danny Boy" a cappella.

As for Kay Kyser's "Three Little Fishes," I can live without that one.
