Any track in particular? Or is the music not the selling point?

I think they only had one album, found on iTunes. Have a "sample" it's quite cool (in answer to your question I have no idea what else would make you buy the music...).

Also have Kings College Choir Christmas carols..

Only one possible choice, in my opinion...

If you haven't heard this original song from 1968 please listen to the very subtle soundscape in the background of the music. The best and most profound anti-War song ever produced.

You're right john mcm. The Babes are really a bunch of beardy folk singers in home made jumpers, they're just toying with us with a name like that.

We had a bizzare mix of Rat Pack, Mowtown, and Phil Spector Xmas secials plus a suprising number of religious Christmas carols for a household with at best a sceptical view of faith based organisations - however let me wish you all a Happy New Year with this beautiful song based on the New Years eve folk tradition in Allendale Northumberland - sung by the Unthanks (folkies but not bearded!)

I also like Phil Spector, the thought of him always brings Christmas cheer  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/phil-spect...
