Children of all ages will delight in the simple melodies featured in A Child's Collection of Folk Music. These story-songs are repetitive and eminently singable. Material ranges from traditional twangy banjo numbers like “She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain” from Folk granddaddy Pete Seeger to the soulful song-in-the-round “Run Molly Run” by contemporary gospel group Sweet Honey in the Rock. Moms and dads will have the opportunity to share some of their favorite folk artists with the next generation: Michelle Shocked, who does a lovely traditional Irish-minstral-type ballad; Taj Mahal, who performs a bluesy “Little Brown Dog”; and Woody Guthrie on “Riding in My Car (Car Song).” And for all the Deadhead mommies, there's Jerry Garcia and David Grisman performing “There Ain't No Bugs on Me.” Kids will particularly enjoy the Cajun boogie of Buckwheat Zydeco and the trip-over-the-tongue island music of Cedella Marley Booker. --Paige La Grone
