Train Your Child
"Train Your Child" was recorded in 1928 by Washington Phillips (1880–1954).[2] It is remarkable in that it divides into two distinct parts: (1) a spoken homily by him about child-rearing, and (2) an instrumental solo in gospel blues style on his unique zither-like instrument.

gollark: I figured out the problem! Esowiki is being stupid and for some reason you can link to `Wikipedia:Whatever` and it links to Wikipedia.
gollark: Okay, mystery solved! Ish! Not really! It's crawling the links to nonexistent pages and fetching them anyway.
gollark: Well, the link input-into-database code seems sound.
gollark: Also, it's several gigabytes of data, I can't actually sort through it for debugging very fast.
