Oh, I do. I have a couple of McKennit's CDs.

My favorite is "The Highwayman." youtube.com

I remember a teacher reading "The Highwayman" poem to us in grade school or highschool, I forget which. I remembered this part, about "a-twinkle."


He'd a French cocked-hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin,
A coat of the claret velvet, and breeches of brown doe-skin;
They fitted with never a wrinkle: his boots were up to the thigh!
And he rode with a jewelled twinkle,
His pistol butts a-twinkle,
His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jewelled sky.
