from That Lion! - Songs and Stories for Children, released May 15, 1985
Marc Nerenberg: vocal, banjo, autoharp, vocal bass (recorded by running the tape at double speed while I "sang" a bass part with my head inside a clothes dryer, and then playing the tape at normal speed to lower that "bass part" an octave).
