What Parents Need to Know
About Widdecombe Fair
Parents need to know that these traditional ballads, work songs, and sea shanties are soulful and have educational value, but the content is not entirely appropriate for very young children and the spare folk arrangements and overall similarity in the songs may lack appeal for older children wanting a more varied, contemporary sound. Overall, it's dark and mournful -- not upbeat.
