Deep In The Heart - Big Songs For Little Texans Everywhere
Various Artists
Few albums made for kids can boast the roster of Songs for Little Texans Everywhere, which finds notable Texan country singers collaborating to support a children’s charity. For younger listeners, the result is a twangy romp though familiar sing-alongs (“You Are My Sunshine,” “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad,” “This Little Light of Mine”). For older ears, the skillful and heartfelt renditions from the likes of Jack Ingram, Asleep at the Wheel, and Ray Benson make this one of the most enjoyable children’s offerings of 2012.
