Editorial Reviews :
An aptly named album if ever there was one, Not for Kids Only combines the talents of two legendary performers, the late Jerry Garcia, singer-guitarist of the Grateful Dead, and David Grisman, mandolinist and father of 'dawg music,' a melding of bluegrass, jazz, swing, Latin, and Jewish klezmer sounds. On this 1993 recording, the two devoted friends make seemingly effortless music, adapting traditional and old-time folk into a personalized sound so 'homemade' (with jew's-harp and tambourine) as to inspire any child, young or old, to pick up whatever's at hand to play along. From the jaunty rhythms of 'Jenny Jenkins' to the cornball humor of 'Arkansas Traveler' and the laugh-out-loud lyrics of 'A Horse Named Bill' ('I had a girl and her name was Daisy / And when she sang the cat went crazy'), this album, with Garcia's delightful hand-drawn cover art, tickles from top to bottom.
Buyer Reviews :
All I can say is my daughter loves it, and I love playing it for her. The songs are catchy and fun, and Jerry and Dave's voices are such a pleasure to listen to, especially after suffering though Elmo, Barney and Friends, and other 'kid's recordings'. Also, exposing children to the music of Jerry Garcia and Dave Grisman is a very good for them, and it gives me a thrill to see my child enjoying their music, just like I do.
