Live from Fearrington Village

Since 1992, Donald Davis has performed during the Christmas season at Fearrington Village, a unique destination community near Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Hundreds of people fill the seats in the historic barn, now converted for use as an events venue. This CD, recorded live at Davis's December 15, 2007, performance, captures the familiar and special relationship between a skilled and beloved storyteller and the audience that has sustained him year after year. In three memorable stories, Davis revisits the vertigo occasioned by the rides at the county fair, recalls the days when corporal punishment was common, and puzzles over the Belks department-store Santa's inability to remember him despite multiple visits.
