To Drive The Cold Winter Away
''To Drive the Cold Winter Away'' is Canadian musician Loreena McKennitt's second studio album, released on January 11, 1987. It pays homage to her childhood memories of music for the winter season, the most vivid of which "came from songs and carols recorded in churches or great halls, rich with their own unique ambience and tradition." To capture that remembered ambiance, McKennitt kept the arrangements sparse, celebrating the beauty of simplicity. She also chose to leave the found sounds of life in the performances, which were recorded on location in churches and great halls: * The Church of Our Lady in Guelph, Ontario, Canada * Glenstal Abbey, A Benedictine Monastery near Limerick, Ireland * Annaghmakerrig (The Tyrone Guthrie Centre) in County Monaghan County Monaghan ( ; ) is a Counties of Ireland, county in Ireland.

Long Live (The Chariot Album)
''Long Live'' is the fourth studio album by The Chariot, released on November 23, 2010. Writing and recording Prior to recording ''Long Live'', Matt Goldman, the producer of all of The Chariot's albums to date, contacted the group in early 2010 and showed his interest in recording their next album live to analog magnetic tape.

This process was used entirely on their debut album, '' Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead, and Nothing Is Bleeding'' in 2004. At least one song off of ''Long Live'' was recorded in this manner.
