Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Essentially a label sampler featuring selections from children's albums by Buckwheat Zydeco, Cedella Marley Booker, Maria Muldaur, Sweet Honey in the Rock, Taj Mahal, and John McCutcheon, Music for Little People's A Children's Celebration of Folk Music is filled out by the licensing of songs by Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, Doc Watson, Raffi, David Mallett, and David Grisman and Jerry Garcia (the one newly recorded performance is Michelle Shocked's "See the Sea") to make for a varied folk collection of entertaining songs that range from traditional material to Guthrie's childlike "Riding in My Car (Car Song)," and from Raffi's idealistic "World We Love" to Muldaur's spirited reading of the Johnny Burke-James VanHeusen song from the Bing Crosby film Going My Way. Children may not sing along to all of it, but they will enjoy it, and their parents won't mind. ~ William Ruhlmann
