简介

Released in1986 by Rooster Records recording artists Will Wright & Jim Reiman, this album contains 22 children's classics played in an old time string band style. With harmony vocals, guitars, fiddles, and mandolin. Robert Christgau, Dean of American Rock Critics, writer for The Village Voice, says of this LP: "Most kiddie musicians are, to be precise, yucky. These folkies are tart and spare as well as tuneful. They never force the cheer, never condescend. "Alabama Girls," "Skip to My Lou," "Row, Row, Row Your Boat," "Brahms' Lullabye," twenty-two sure shots in all, half wake-up sings, half instrumental lullabyes. I bet you don't own more than a few. And yes, the critic in the crib down the hall is almost as delighted to hear "Yankee Doodle" as she is "Ooh Poo Pah Doo" or anything by Madonna." A- The album also made Christgau's 1986 A-list and his 1987 Dean's List. This album is dedicated to Will's mother Nancy, who sang and hummed many of these tunes to him when he was a child.
