Elizabeth, her husband Daniel and daughter Storey, who also sing and play on her albums |
No surprise: I love this album. Not just because of Mitchell, but because I like Woody Guthrie's music. So many of the songs are familiar, not just from Elizabeth's albums, but from growing up hearing them sung at home and at school.
The album contains Mitchell's take on 13 classic songs for children. I really had no clue how much music for children that Woody Guthrie wrote, and we've been enjoying the discovery of some new pieces. It's a great album to listen to, with or without the kids.
You can take a listen to "Bling, Blang" and "This Land is Your Land", both perennial favorites that you'll probably recognize.

Well, "This Land is Your Land" and "Bling Blang" are pretty wonderful, but they still don't top her cover of "Three Little Birds" for me...this would be awesome to add to our rotation of her music though!
