HEART - "BRING A TORCH"
Topic: New Tab Postings

In the 1990s, Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart engaged in a musical side project, a band called The Lovemongers. Joining them in the venture was their long-time friend and songwriting partner Sue Ennis, as well as musicians Frank Cox and Ben Smith. The group released an EP and a full length CD, and in 1998 they released a Christmas CD entitled Here Is Christmas.

As I recall, that album was a bit hard to come by, but I remember buying a cassette tape single of the album's title song. The B-side of that single was a very nice acoustic guitar and flute instrumental rendition of the traditional Christmas carol "Bring A Torch, Jeanette Isabella".

In 2001, the Wilsons re-released this Christmas CD under the Heart name, titling it Heart Presents A Lovemongers' Christmas. It was issued once again in 2004 (with the cover shown at top right) with two new tracks added. A shortened one-verse version of "Bring A Torch" opens the album, seguing directly into "Here Is Christmas", while a full version of the song closes
the album. The tab is of the full three verse version.
