Not For Kids Only(Deluxe Edition)

Pressed to vinyl for the very first time, this Deluxe edition of this award-winning classic children’s album from Grateful Dead co-founder Jerry Garcia and Bluegrass Hall of Famer David Grisman has been remastered in high definition and features four bonus tracks.

Awarded as a Notable Children’s Recording by the American Library Association, the beloved release Not for Kids Only is a timeless collection of folky favourites and playful picks from Jerry Garcia & David Grisman aimed at both children and parents.

As Jerry old Rolling Stone Magazine during the making of Not For Kids Only, “This is a reaction to the revisionist approach to children’s songs.
We’ve gone poking around in the traditional stuff for songs that don’t want to be changed.
We’d like to introduce them to kids the way they are and let them be.”

So here they are — songs like “Jenny Jenkins,” “Freight Train,” and “There Ain’t No Bugs On Me” — the way Jerry and David learned them long ago along with their unique arrangements of the classics “Shenandoah” and “Teddy Bears’ Picnic.” Simple and playful, subtle and sophisticated, this collection of music is recommended for anyone who is, or ever was, a kid.
