Legendary sister duo, singer-songwriters and Grammy Award-Winners Carly & Lucy Simon [title]Sing Songs For Children[/title]. In the mid-'60s they recorded a couple of albums for Kapp in a pleasing, pop-flavored folk style, with tight coffeehouse harmonies in the manner of Peter, Paul & Mary and early Simon & Garfunkel. Sing Songs For Children includes their hit-charting adaptation of Eugene Field's nursery rhyme "Wynken, Blynken And Nod" and the popular children's tale "The Owl And The Pussycat". Previously released on Columbia Records as "The Simon Sisters Sing The Lobster Quadrille And Other Songs For Children" in 1969 and "The Simon Sisters Sing For Children" in 1973, this marks the first time these titles have been put together and released on CD.

1. Wynken, Blynken and Nod
2. Calico Pie
3. The Lamplighter
4. The Owl and the Pussycat
5. Sleep Baby, Sleep
6. The Lamb
7. The Lobster Quadrille
8. Who Has Seen the Wind?
9. I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
10. A Red, Red Rose
11. A Pavane for the Nursery

This appears to be a reissue of a Carly & Lucy Simon album as The Simon Sisters originally entitled ...SING THE LOBSTER QUADRILLE & OTHER SONGS FOR CHILDREN. It was released in 1969 as CR 21525 and then re-released in 1973 as ...SING FOR CHILDREN as CR21539. The 1973 version apparently was remixed for a more current sound. I wonder which version is being used by Shout Factory for this reissue! This will just about complete the Simon Sisters discography on CD, though, with their earlier sides having been collected by Hip-O Select. Good news for Carly fans, anyhow!
