Deborah Greenblatt and David Seay have self-published a delightful collection of whimsical and entertaining original songs, written between 1975 and 2015. Each of the 27 songs is published over two pages - one page contains a vocal line written in treble clef, and the other, song lyrics and chord symbols. The index lists each song alphabetically and includes such fun titles as “Flea-Bitten Blues,” “Coffee, Coffee, Coffee,” “The Milk Cows Know,” and “Quackoff”. In the back of the volume, Greenblatt & Seay have provided charming anecdotal stories about the origins of each song. It is fascinating to read about each selection and, through those descriptions, to learn more about this couple who have been composing and performing for nearly 50 years.
Appropriate for singers, guitar, fiddle and most C instruments, these songs are perfect for avocational musicians who appreciate traditional storytelling through song. Accessible to intergenerational groups, this collection is a welcome addition to the canon of traditional music for teachers, students, community singers and families who enjoy making music together.
The musicians” website contains recorded examples of most of the songs. In addition, videos of them performing selections from this collection further illustrate the adaptability and flexibility to combine a virtually endless combination of traditional instruments for individual and unique accompaniment. The lyrics with clever rhymes and catchy melodies are memorable and charming.
These modern-day troubadours have crafted a volume of songs that can be performed and enjoyed by many groups of musicians. These are all original works that are not available except through the composers’ website.
