Day 12 - It Came Upon A Midnight Clear - Tammy Wynette

This Sunday's Carol - making its first appearance on the Calendar - comes courtesy of the First Lady of Country Music with a track from her 1970 'Christmas with Tammy' album. It's exactly what you'd be expecting and all the more wonderful for it.

Of course, Ms Wynette made her talent first known at a Nativity service in her home town of Tremont, Mississippi when, dressed as an 8-year-old shepherd, she picked up the nearest sheep and, astonished the watching parents with a song of her own called 'Stand by your Lamb'

Ay-thank-yew (See what I did there?) 

Don't forget I'm here till Christmas Day, tell all your friends and - please! - try the fish.
