Here's a topic that I've long found intersting but can't find much information on. Most searches in this vein turn up music
for kids, but rarely music made
by kids (even though some of the former can be awesome too). I certainly don't want this to come across as creepy or misguided, or to veer into that territory; however, there's something genuinely pure and oftentimes unrefined about music made by those less experienced or jaded by the codified strictures of adulthood. The early Redd Kross recordings, for instance, are some of my favorite punk records. The Prats are pure exuberance.
I posted a song on FB last night by family band Unit 3 and Venus, featuring an eight-year-old singer wailing about her distaste for beer, and user Arturo tipped me off to this great-looking comp:

Jr. and His Soulettes' "Momma Love Tequila" is certainly one of the best songs ever recorded. The rest of the record ain't too bad either.

What else is there?
kevin, when's the Sadie record coming out?
