And
now. . .children's music according to Jerry Garcia and David Grisman,
two old friends and world-class musicians, who have a love for tradi-
tional folk music and share the joy of picking. As Jerry told Rolling
Stone magazine during the making of Not For Kids Only, "This is a reaction
to the revisionist approach to children's songs. We've gone poking around
in the traditional stuff for songs that don't want to be changed. We'd
like to introduce them to kids the way they are and let them be." So here
they are - songs like "Jenny Jenkins," "Freight Train," "A Horse Named
Bill," "Three Men Went A-Hunting," "There Ain't No Bugs On Me," "The Miller's
Will" - the way Jerry and David learned them some 30 years ago. Plus enjoy
new arrangements of the classics "Shenandoah" and "Teddy Bears' Picnic."
Simple and playful, subtle and sophisticated, this collection of music
is recommended for anyone who is, or ever was, a kid.
