Before you press play on Songs From A Parent To A Child, here is a little of the story behind it. As Wikipedia puts it, “Songs from a Parent to a Child is the eighth solo studio album by Art Garfunkel and his first new studio release since Lefty nine years earlier. Released as a concept album in 1997, it features his son, wife and a host of celebrity musicians, and was built on the concept of children's songs.”

Altogether the disc holds 13 tracks and about 39 minutes of music, opening with “Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Little Feet?” and closing with “The Lord's Prayer / Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep”. Pop records like this live on melody, hooks and the voice out front.

Put it on, turn it up and let “Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Little Feet?” set the mood. Our copy is in Near Mint (NM or M-) condition and is priced at $2.99. Tap the button below to see the photos and order it.
