"Take the Golden Ring concept, add a splendid collection of unusual Christmas songs and tunes, bring in Cathy Barton and Dave Para, Sandy, Caroline and David Paton, Ed Trickett's guitar and harmonies, Skip Gorman's fiddle, and Gordon Bok to offer a Quaker Benediction, and you have a Folk-Legacy Christmas recording."
-Sandy Paton, co-founder Folk-Legacy Records

Twas a Night Like This presents a diverse selection of traditional Christmas songs, ranging from Poland to the Shetlands, and from Spain to Alabama. Performed by the founders of Folk-Legacy Records, their son, and some of the label's most frequent contributors, this album carries with it an intimate and familial tone evocative of the Christmas season.
