The week drives this tasty selection.
One of the last recordings Guthrie made, this collection of children's songs is magical. It is not patronizing or stupid or disingenuous. It gets into a child's mind and speaks in their voice, to them. It should be put on repeat in every nursery. Sounds and noises and silliness abound, and yet there is something more...
It prepares young minds for the magic of Callahans and Beams and Bonnie Princes that will come later.
I found it when our boy was born and the song Goodnight Little Arlo rang through our home. I offer it for the Gretas and the Dres, but mostly for the new and quiet little eskimo we call Greer. Your daddy surely loves you.
