The Bluestein Family

A Horse Named Bill and other children's folksongs

This collection might also be sub-titled A Child's Introduction to the Stringband. In the 15 songs presented here, different instruments are featured in a wide variety of folk and traditional styles, all with the warmth and virtuosity typical of the
Bluestein Family. A Horse Named Bill is not only educational, but musically pleasing and fun to listen to for both children and adults. The Bluestein Family performs the songs of Woody Guthrie, Jean Ritchie and the Carter Family, as well as
many traditional favorites.

Find out about the second children's album, Good Mornin' Blues.

Reviewer in San Francisco: " ...but the kicker was this CD I bought from him for my kids. It’s called A Horse Named Bill. Evo and his brothers and sister made it with their dad in the 70’s. It’s got that great folk authenticity -- they were a real family band. I think you can hear how much they loved each other and the music, even with the occasional teen sass popping up here and there. The songs are traditional songs, Woody Guthrie songs, Carter Family songs and more.
Music for me is so much about community and love and heart. The Bluestein Family’s A Horse Named Bill sounds just like that. I wish I could buy every one of you a copy and send them to you as a gift."
