[Notes]
When renowned musician and songwriter Chip Taylor ("Wild Thing" and "Angel of the Morning") became a grandfather, he directed his creative energy to writing new songs with and for his grandkids. Golden Kids Rules melds the husky, time-worn vocals and the musical instincts of a seasoned performer with the charming artistry of his three young grandchildren. The album overflows with love of family and the musical bonds that hold them together. Taylor’s brother, actor Jon Voight, offers an insightful introduction to the artist and the album. 13 tracks, 38 minutes, 36-page booklet with lyrics.
