Her mother was the influential musician, educator, and folklorist Ruth Crawford Seeger, who drew on field recordings archived in the Library of Congress for the book. A joyful album for children and adults, the music on this recording tells tales of little brown dogs, old frogs, pretty squirrels, and cross eyed gophers, while the liner notes divulge the songs' intriguing origins and lyrics. Although many of the songs have been passed down through generations with little more than perhaps some hand clapping and foot tapping, Seeger provides simple guitar, banjo, and fiddle accompaniment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Little Brown Dog \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Oh, Blue \u003cbr\u003e1.3 The Big Sheep (The Darby Ram) \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Riding Round the Cattle \u003cbr\u003e1.5 The Old Cow Died \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Raccoon and Possum \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Cross-Eyed Gopher \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Little Lap-Dog Lullaby \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Jack, Can I Ride \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Daddy Shot a Bear \u003cbr\u003e1.11 The Deer Song \u003cbr\u003e1.12 And We Hunted and We Hunted \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Mister Rabbit \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Peep Squirrel \u003cbr\u003e1.15 A Squirrel Is a Pretty Thing \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Snake Baked a Hoecake \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Old Lady Goose \u003cbr\u003e1.18 My Old Hen's Good Old Hen \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Of All the Beast-Es\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Peggy Seeger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32432422748231,"sku":"16946347","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/1505752.jpg?v=1747362260","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/peggy-seeger-animal-folk-songs-for-children","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
