Jolly Tinker lyrics

Jolly Tinker
Gumstump Records, 2005.
Jeff’s first solo album, reflecting many of the songs he is currently using on tour. All but three songs are traditional. Supporting artists include New England master musicians Rodney Miller and David Surrette, piano artist Jacqueline Schwab and renowned banjoist Bob Webb.
“A stunning record. Not to be missed by anyone who loves American traditional folk songs and singing.”
Dirty Linen Magazine
“As the son of perhaps our most notable song finding couple…he grew up with, not just the songs, but the stories and the spirit of the actual people who preserved them. The result of this extraordinary upbringing can be heard in every note and word.”

with Louis Killen and others. Collector, 1977;
Smithsonian Folkways Recordings, 2006.
19th Century songs of sailors and the sea.
“Beautiful recapturing of the days of sail. Very honest presentations of shanties and songs, some of them rough enough to really give you a feel for what it might have been like out there on the blue.”

Two Little Boys: More Old Time Songs for Kids
with Jeff Davis. 1994.
Traditional songs that I like-and kids seem to as well.
“This is a great collection of authentic, old-time American songs, sung by two of the country's most respected singers and collectors. One of the reasons I would particularly recommend this for parents is its essential dignity of tone: nowhere do the singers talk down, preach or yell and scream at your children.”

Old Time Songs for Kids lyrics

Old Time Songs for Kids
with Jeff Davis. 1987.
Traditional American songs used in school programs for years.
“This duo may be doing themselves a disservice with the ‘kids’ categorization: this collection of songs is sung and played in a most attractive style.”

“Unless they have been desensitized by ‘folk rock’ or modern hyped-up ‘country,’ I predict people will ‘walk on air’ as they browse through this galaxy of nearly 200 songs, and perhaps even sing them.” -- Smithsonian Magazine
“This extraordinary collection belongs in most libraries as a companion to Alan Lomax's Folksongs of North America.” -- Library Journal
“Most Collections have a handful of beautiful pieces, but the Warner book, the fruit of forty years of gleaning, is all gold.” -- Alan Lomax
“Indispensable.” -- The Washington Post
