On
first glance, you might think Raffi has gone country in this new
album. But on closer inspection, you'll discover that this gem of
an album is actually a tribute to this children's music favorite. Country
Goes Raffi features
country greats like The Wilkinsons, Asleep at the Wheel, and
Alison Krauss performing some of Raffi's greatest songs--and an
all-new one. Raffi himself also performs a new song entitled Blue
White Planet on this family-pleasing recording.
Country Goes Raffi features silly songs like Shake My
Sillies Out, Apples and Bananas, and Down By the Bay
("Did you ever see llamas eating their pajamas?"); songs
that encourage kids to appreciate nature and the environment such
as Naturally, Thanks A Lot, and the new Blue
White Planet; and heart-warming songs like All I Really
Need and Blessed Be.
Kids will love to hear their favorite songs, like Baby
Beluga and Down by the Bay, performed in new ways,
while parents will enjoy the sophistication that this collection
brings to children's music.
