The Singing McMurrays with 2-Year Old Brenda and 4-Year Old Brian - Put Your Hand In The Hand/Jesus Loves Me/You Laid Your Hand On The Range

Found this record at a Goodwill thrift shop (in Seattle, WA) in the summer of 2000. One of those thrift store days where you find treasure... well if you consider singing children 'treasure'! I do! You know certain records show incredible promise (of the cool and very strange nature) when the children are holding tambourines on a back cover image and the parents have given the youngsters one side of the album to freely express themselves. Be sure to enjoy the recording quality of this recording as decibels of dead air come to meet each torturous selection with voices clipping, random pan maneuvers and other bizarre audio artifacts. Parents, keep recording your children. Bless you!

Play very loud... for others.
