This is a case where trolling Russian FTPs at random pays off. Here are a few choice tracks from Moi Lyubimye Pesni (which I assume translates something like “More Children’s Songs”):
Rizhii, Rizhii, Konopatii
Dva Veselih Gusia
“Animated” music, complete with bizarre cut-in sound effects…
Pesenka Krasnoi Shapochki
Pesenka Mamontenka
Toddler funk?
Pesenka o Lete
Kolibel’naia Medvedici
Moi Lyubimye Pesni also has a slightly creepy “1001 Strings Over Belarus” side to it.
Spiat Utsalie Igrushki
Bol’shoi Loshadinii Sekret
Two beautifully played and not at all weird songs towards the end of the disc – the latter featuring gorgeous Birkin/Gainsbourg-style harmonies between the mysterious adult vocalists.

simply tremendously fantastic - that first toddler funk track is almost too much fun.
“Мои любимые песни” means “My Favorite Songs”. To be honest, this area of our (Western rock music fans from Russia) own national muz-heritage appears now to be something fresh and newly discovered, despite hearing all those song every day on the radio years ago. Thanx!
