Thread Name: Lullaby Search
Subject: Folklore: Lullaby Search
My daughter is expecting my first grandchild in a few months (I know she thinks of it as her child, but we'll soon sort that out). I was listening to Renbourn's Wexford Lullaby on a trip the other day and realized that I would like to give my grandchild a recording of lullabies like it.

Can you suggest other traditional lullabies? I wouldn't be adverse to something more recent like Mary Chapin Carpenter's Dreamland, either. Given the nature of my voice I'm most interested in something someone else has already recorded. We're trying to be nice to the child.
