Hoping someone could help. I’m trying to figure out which from the Christmas band are compilations, and which are official releases. I have Magic Touch, which is a studio album, but also Carols...which I believe is a compilation. I’m trying to reduce duplication as much as possible but with what is available it seems difficult to do. Thanks!

I think there are three compilations, Traditional, Carols and Under The Christmas Tree

Five studio albums and one live album.

There are also two Christmas albums and one Christmas themed live album by the Albion Band, prior to the ACB designation.

Thanks Al. For right now I only want the ACB designation ones, of which based on your info, I have the live album, and one studio album (Magic Time), and Carols. So if I avoid Traditional and Under The Christmas Tree, I will have the 5 studio albums then.

Yep

An Albion Christmas
Winter Songs

Ashley also has a new seasonal album out with Blair Dunlop & Becky Mills but I haven't heard it yet.

I don't have Magic Touch - but do have the other studio and live ACB albums.  I'll have to look out for that one.

I have them all via Itunes. I added An Albion Christmas last night. Magic Touch is rather good. A beautiful song by Ashley and Ruth Angel called There’s A Light Shining Over Bethlehem, and a version of Christmas Eve 1914 that segues into Silent Night sung in English and German. Very touching.
