This three-disc set reissued by
Rounder Records
in 1997 takes children's singer
Raffi
's first three (and arguably best) albums,
Singable Songs for the Very Young
,
More Singable Songs
, and
The Corner Grocery Store and More Singable Songs
, and packages them all together.
The Singable Songs Collections
goes through all types of songs -- from traditional to country-inspired, to calypso, to folk, to just silly -- and includes tracks like
"I've Been Working on the Railroad,"
"Down by the Bay,"
"Goodnight Irene,"
"You Gotta Sing,"
"Who Built the Ark?,"
and
"Baa Baa Black Sheep,"
making for a very appealing collection, music that's fun for kids and their parents alike. ~ Marisa Brown
