Thanks to Rob Bateman for the "heads up" about this new album and for the song list below.

This seems to be a bit of an odd grouping of songs. There are songs for both adults and children whereas in the past this most albums fell pretty clearly into one category or the other. This album seems to be a bit more mixed. There are only three songs on this album that are not on other albums: Danville Girl, Foggy Foggy Dew, and Golden Vanity. Those three are very unusual in that Paxton usually records only his own original songs while these are all traditional songs with histories that go back centuries. I'm glad to see "Wish I had a Troubadour" is finally being included on an in-print album. Still, odd or not, there are a lot of great songs on this album. Enjoy!
