Twinkle twinkle little star -- Itsy bitsy spider -- Wheels on the bus -- Lullaby -- Rain rain go away -- Mary had a little lamb -- The hokey pokey -- Row row row your boat -- Are you sleeping? -- If you're happy and you know it -- You are my sunshine.
Performed by Mike Block, vocals, cello, toy piano, guitar ; Barry Rothman, phonographs ; with additional musicians.Summary: Since becoming a father 3 years ago, I've become intimately aware of so many classic songs for children. The appeal of these songs span many countries and centuries, and there is a simple genius to the best of them. This album was a cathartic experience, reclaiming songs I've heard a million times by engaging with them creatively and exploring their limits. My hope is that kids can enjoy listening to these familiar songs in a new way, while also providing some extra interest for the parents in the room, as well.
