Elmo's Lowdown Hoedown

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Sesame Street is one of the most trusted brand names in all of television, and it's earned it. Elmo's Lowdown Hoedown isn't incredibly educational--your kids will not finish the album and start doing calculus--but there are lessons to be learned here: "It's Zydeco" introduces the musical style and a number of instruments; "Readers of the Open Range" encourages kids to pick up books; "A Tall Tale"--which features "Noel Cowherd" and "Polly Darton"--illustrates the limitations of gullibility. The music is, as always, topnotch, and the stories are fun. Special note: Elmo, the de facto host of the album, shows up on only a handful of songs, and Zoe is nowhere to be found. --Randy Silver

Fun Fun Fun.......2004-09-23

I bought this CD for my son's 2nd birthday party. We had a Hoedown theme and this CD was GREAT!!! Since the party we listen to atleast one of the songs each day. My son's favorite song is the Tall Tale song. Not only is it fun to listen to but the topics are wonderful as well.

Fun for kids of all ages!.......2000-10-17

My children and I cannot stop listening to this cd! Our favorites are "Sad cafe" and "Love in the Junkyard" and "Handful of Crumbs". "Lonesome Joan" is a sappy song sung by Ernie and Bert, and it brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to it.

All the songs are very funny, encouraging, entertaining, and subtly teach the kids lifeskills at the same time without being naggy and preachy .. true sesame street style.

Wonderful!.......2000-06-15

This is a truly wonderful CD. In the typical Sesame Street style, it can be enjoyed by adults as well as children. Many of the songs are really quite humorous, especially "Handful of Crumbs" by Cookie Monster. My daughter loves it!
