| | Pete Seeger American Folk, Game & Activity Songs For Children CD Pete Seeger Discography of CDs
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
This hour-long CD combines the entirety of two children's-oriented Seeger LPs, 1953's American Folk Songs for Children and 1962's American Game and Activity Songs for Children, onto one disc. The eleven songs on American Folk Songs for Children were specifically selected from an identically titled book anthology of folk songs for children collected by Seeger's stepmother, Ruth Crawford Seeger. Pete Seeger renders them plainly and simply, singing and playing and banjo, on a program designed especially (but not solely) for children between three and seven years of age. "Jim Crack Corn," "Frog Went A-Courting," and "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain" are some of the better-known tunes on the record, but not all of them are as overly familiar. American Game and Activity Songs for Children focuses especially on songs associated with activities and dancing, sometimes sung a cappella, sometimes sung with accompaniment from Seeger's banjo. "Skip to My Lou," "Ring Around the Rosy," "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush," and "Yankee Doodle" are some of the more well-known songs here -- at this point, they're probably more over-familiar than they were when the album was first released -- but there are less overdone ones here too, including the spiritual "Liza Jane." ~ Richie Unterberger
Includes liner notes by Anthony Seeger, Ruth Crawford and Pete Seeger.

$14.29 Recorded in New York, New York and Los Angeles, California between 1935 and 1942. Includes liner notes by Paul Pelletier.
Taken from sessions recorded in the late '30s and early '40s, this collection finds Armstrong in what is perhaps his last great phase, before the formation of his All-Stars and his reliance upon a strict repertoire of popular songs. While this period sees the maestro primarily tackling standards and radio hits--as opposed to his own material or favorites from the Okeh catalog--his musical personality and finesse are such that only the crankiest ...
