The Modern Jazz Quartet - England's Carol download song

One of my all time favorites

Who knows the notes to this melody? HELP PLEASE

nothing better than the M J Q,enjoy their mastery and God bless their souls

In England the Carol is called. God Rest Ye Merrie Gentlemen .

fantastic after all these years takes me back to the sixties

Should have 12 million views instead of 12 thousand. The orchestration is wonderful,and MJQ is outasight. What a great way to integrate orchestra and combo.

the origonal was just the quartet and no orchestra, and i preffered that.

Really a great song...bring back many memories. I still have the original record on 45rpm and i like the fact that this is a continous play of the song...On my 45 it use to bother me that i would have to turn over the 45 to hear side 2. Art Pallan on KDKA Pttsburgh played this every Christmas season along with The Song Of Mary ( The Magnificat ) I miss those times... Another Broadcaster by the name of Jack Bogut of Pittsburgh would play these two songs .

50th years ago when I was 10, I found The Modern Jazz Quartet and England´s Carol, great musicians and absolutely brilliant music... 

I too grew up in Pittsburgh area and this is my favorite rendition of this song. Thank you for providing this to us.

The version on Plastic Dreams has less strings..
