Amidon Family MusicThe Fairie’s Gift: Songs for Children
$15.00 Add to cart2005. Peter, Mary Alice and Sam Amidon, Pete Sutherland, Ron Kelley
We made our first children’s album of songs quite by accident in 1984, when our friends Connie Woodberry and Carl Hirth were taking a trip to Thailand and requested a cassette for their two children to listen to on the journey. We made a recording of it in our living room with a hand held tape recorder. When they returned they saidd we needed to do this for other parents. The Faerie’s Gift includes two of our original settings of poems, our firest recordd story and songs by Elvis Presley and Louis Armstrong. Here are songs of tenderness, walking in each other’s shoes and celebrating our wonderful world. Though it’s an album for children, we think all our music friends will find much to delight in here.
