About the Artist
Twin Sisters Productions, Inc. is a women-owned company started by twin sisters Kim Mitzo Thompson and Karen Mitzo Hilderbrand. Kim has a masters degree in "Integrating the Arts in the Elementary School Curriculum". Karen is a graduate of Purdue University with a degree in Industrial Engineering. Both sisters are avid music lovers, taking after their father who has been a member of the Shaker Symphony for the past forty-three years. Using her musical background in the classroom, Kim taught her first graders the days of the week, months of the year, and basic phonetic sounds with music. "Students who had difficulty learning basic concepts found success when learning with music", says Kim. When Kim changed grade levels from first grade to third grade, she decided to review the mathematical curriculum in order to familiarize herself with the new math program. Realizing she needed to teach her students multiplication, she started brainstorming unique and fun ways to teach this concept. And that's when it all began..... Karen and Kim wrote "Rap With The Facts", a rhyming, rhythmic song to teach children mutiplication facts. "We all know students memorize their favorite song on the radio in a matter of minutes. Why not capitalize on this phenomena to teach basic skills?" So with the success of her students and a little encouragement from Karen, Kim decided to take this discovery a little further. In 1987, Karen and Kim started Twin Sisters Productions, a company that would provide children with alternative ways to learn basic skills. Today the company has audiocassettes and CD's in the subjects of Infant Lullabies, Reading Readiness, Early Childhood, Math, Foreign Language Instruction, Social Studies, Science, and Safety. Twin Sisters Productions has won over 70 Major National Product Awards and distinctions for quality, age-appropriateness, educational excellence and overall fun. Throughout our catalog found in the Shopping Section, award seals are shown to identify award winning product. Heading in to the next century, Twin Sisters Productions plans to be an innovator in quality children's music and curriculum product.

Album Description
This is the second album from the Los Angeles based octet, Flogging Molly. Taking influence from their Irish roots and the sound of the Californian punk scene, 'Drunken Lullabies'is a mix of brash punk rock guitars, violins, whistles and accordians. The band are often compared to the Pogues and fellow punk band, The Dropkick Murphys.

My Favorite CD.......2007-06-17
This is Flogging Molly at their absolute best. Every track is great. What else is there to say. Great music by a great band. I never get tired of this recording.
Dave King from Fastway on vocals!!!!.......2007-04-03
I did a search on Fastway to see what Dave King (ex vocalist from the blues metal band Fastway...from the '80's) was up to these days and ran across a comment that he was singing for a band called Flogging Molly. I heard some sample clips and honestly I don't think , from what I heard anway, that he sounds anything like he did on the Fastway albums. That's not a good or bad thing...just my observation. I'll listen to a few more, but I'd like to hear him wail on a song or two to compare his voice to that from the '80's. Don't get me wrong, this stuff will keep your feet movin'. I enjoyed what I have heard. I just need to listen to some more tracks. I mainly wrote this review to inform any Fastway fans out there who may be wondering whatever became of good ole Dave. I'm glad he has found solice in something he obviously enjoys doing. Keep on keepin' on!
My first Celtic Rock CD.......2006-12-07
I heard the title track from this CD back in Fall of 2004, and instantly became a Celtic Rock fan. I began a quest to find as much comparable and similar music as I could. I will say that this is about where I draw the line in terms of how much "punk" style I can deal with in my Celtic Rock. The vocals are a little harsh sounding, but the music is lively and enjoyable enough to make up for it. For me it was a good place to start. If you like Irish-style music and can deal with a little hard rock, you will like this.
If its Flogging Molly, Its good.......2006-11-10
My favorite album is Swagger but this one is great too. You can't go wrong with any Flogging Molly.
One of the best bands of all time........2006-09-25
I never really was into punk music too much. I thought it was too much screaming, and not enough instrumentation. THen, I discovered Flogging Molly, one of the greatest things to ever happen. I listened to Drunken Lullabies, and was immedietely hooked on this band. THis is an amazing CD that truly deserves recognition. This was the first Flogging Molly CD I listened to, and got me completely hooked on this Irish/Folksy punk band.
Track by Track:
1. "Drunken Lullabies": Brilliant opening, with a cool sounding banjo in the beginning, an awesome fiddle, and some great lyrics. 10/10
2. "Whats Left of the Flag": Another awesome song, with even better lyrics than drunken lullabies. Its not as catchy musically, but only barely so. Many consider this one of their best because of its bitter lyrics. Again, a great violin, and some really good singing. 9.5/10
3. "May the living be dead in our wake": Its similar sounding to the first two, except instead of a violin, there's a flute, which makes an awesome sound. Its still fast paced and upbeat, but more soothing than the first two songs. 9/10
4. "If I ever leave this world alive": A slow ballad that is remarkably well done. After three fast songs, it may not seem as good, but give this song some time, and you'll enjoy it. The singing is excellent here, showing Dave King's vocal power and range. 8/10
5. "The Kilburn High Road": Again, another fast paced one with a killer guitar solo, and another flute. Similar sounding to "May the living..." with a VERY catchy chorus that I always find myself singing. 9/10
6. "Rebels of a sacred heart": This is a different style song. It has a slow opening that may sound not so good, but it has an intensely catchy chorus, and if you give it several listens, it is excellent. Its long, but definetely a brilliant addition. 9/10
7. "Swagger": One of the weaker songs of the album. It is completely instrumental, with only one line that means nothing. However cool the melody is, its too repetitive to be good. THe guitar is a treat here, but again, too repetitive. Luckily its short. 6/10
8. "Cruel Mistress": There's a change of singers here, but the song is still instrumentally amazing. I don't care much for the bass player singing, I think Dave King is a lot better, but this guy provides a more sinister and evil sort of sound, and the whole songs sounds very pirate like and kind of catchy. Its not the best, but still pretty well done. 7.5/10
9. "Death Valley Queen": This is one of my personal favorites. The violin is very well done here, and despite the fact that its a slow song, which may turn people away, the lyrics are extraordinary, about a lost love. I love this song. 9/10
10. "Another Bag of Bricks": THis one sounds arabian and asian with the accordian opening it, and is different and cool. Dave King has a more sinister tone in his voice, it kind of reminds me of "Cruel MIstress". Its better though, and certainly a break from the style of the first three songs. Again, its good, but not excellent. 8/10
11. "The Rare Ould Times": Many consider this song filler, but I love the chorus. The singing/lyrics here are great, although there's not too much in the melody. Like "Cruel MIstress", its good, but not great. 7.5/10
12. "The Son Never Shines": THis is a ballad, and personally, I don't like it. Its too slow, and rather boring. THe singing is good, but the melody, instrumentation is too boring for me. Overall, a weak finish. 5/10.
However, despite a couple blemishes (The Son Never Shines, Swagger) this album is amazing. Definetely, if you like music with great melodies, and yet still a upbeat feel, this is a brilliant album.

Customer Reviews:
Woo Hoo!.......2007-05-07
This is by far the best CD in the Baby Einstein collection--it will put your toddler in hyperactive playful mode and exhaust you as you try to keep up. But for today's overweight, tv- and game- addicted children, this is great!
Einstein.......2007-04-09
Anything that has an Einstein in the title my twins love. I used to play this for them at night while they slept.
The baby danced........2007-03-09
I gave Baby Einstein: Playtime Music Box to a little boy on his first birthday. He loves it and dances and dances to the music.
A Lot of Fun for Playtime.......2006-01-04
This CD is a lot of fun. The music is bubbly and upbeat and makes you want to get up and dance or just jump around. It's a great way to spend some play time with your kids. And the classical music exposure is a bonus.
Synthesized dreck.......2005-08-13
Why did the producers use synthesizers for this music? It's awful. It's possible to hook kids on classical music using the actual instruments written for it - that's how I got hooked. That's what Mel Blanc and Disney did in their cartoons, Bugs Bunny and Fantasia. I do NOT recommend this CD to anyone. It was a shower gift. If you are not familiar with classical music, then I recommend "Baby Needs Beethoven", which is a collection of music using real instruments (albeit shortened - no full length symphonies here).

The Innocence Mission have, over the course of a decade, created a half dozen albums which celebrate small pleasures, fragile details and the wistful edges of life. As the title suggests, Now the Day Is Over offers a set of lullabies. The dozen covers and one original were not all written as bedtime reveries, but it's a testament to the graceful nuances Don and Karen Peris that such a familiar song as "What A Wonderful World" can bring out the twinkling stars of nighttime with heartfelt purity. Free of embellishments, either internal or studio created, Karen's vocals are at once magical and direct. The trio has done much more than to simply streamline or slow down these selections, they've found the core of each number and built around it only that which is necessary. -- David Greenberger
Customer Reviews:
Innocence Mission is an appropriate name.......2007-06-02
Not the worst cd I have and certainly not offensive. However, lacks depth, character, and content. Could be good for the kids. Bought it because I fell in love with a track I heard on Radio Paradise. Overall I could have spent the money in other ways.
Sickenly too sweet.......2007-05-12
I am new to the Innocence Mission. We have a one year old baby, so a friend gave us this CD as a gift. For me, Karen Peris's voice has the "nails across the blackboard" effect on me. She has no range and her voice is cloying. I am not expecting rock 'n roll or anything like that, but I just cannot find anything attractive in her voice. She absolutely "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," a classic and a song that I want to associate with my relatively unspoiled childhood. Oh well, different strokes for different folks.
absolutely love this album.......2007-01-12
I play this album as part of my daughter's bedtime routine. I absolutely LOVE it. Has such a beautiful calmness to it. And as I sit their rocking with my daughter before I put her in her crib, it often brings both smiles to my face and tears to my eyes.
I Love You, Innocence Mission........2007-01-04
In the winter of '89-'90, I picked up The Innocence Mission's eponymous debut on cassette one evening in a mall in Muncie. During my solitary rural Indiana backroads return to Taylor Univ., I was introduced to the delightfully solid intangibility of these troubadours of Heart, Soul, and Mind. I wanted Don and Karen Peris to mother and father me, or to marry Karen, or to be a brother or sister of one, to experience in my life the meaningful connections that in song resonated on and strong without dwindling into the inevitable nihilism that so much of art does nowadays. (Soon realized they were Catholic Universalists or something like that.)Fan for life.
And so, I kept up with their oeuvre. Enjoying the experimental phases of beauty along with the return to simple folk beauty. "Bright as Yellow", on "Glow", piqued the world's interest on the "Empire Records" soundtrack. They toured at least a little with Lilith Fair one year. I found later they've done a blatantly spiritual album "Christ Is My Hope", and that Don (genius of guitar understatement/suggestion) has a couple of his own albums out. I still need to get those 3.
Anyway, the idea of a lullaby album from The Innocence Mission is so perfectly obvious that I never expected it. I mean, she sang songs to her "Someday Coming Child" (on "Umbrella") years before she birthed!
It is as perfect as it could be. Minimal in performance, maximal in effect. (With 3 little boys, I'm a connoisseur of artfully-lulling lullaby albums. Get the Disney Lullaby Album too--no, really--Greg Diakun and Fred Mollin create real art right under DisneyCorp's nose.)
Finally, Karen can sing me to sleep--and my family too.
works beautifully.......2006-10-18
I am a mother of twins and this CD was given to us as a gift. My babies fell asleep to this time after time and it was pleasant listening for both mom and dad. I plan on giving this as a gift to all my new parent friends.

World Music for little ears.......2007-03-14
Baby shower gift .. parents love it .. arrived in new condition in a timley manner
Encourages Children to Sleep.......2006-01-19
Since they were newborns, part of our daughters' nighttime ritual has been a lullaby CD. This is one of the two CDs that our younger daughter listens to, and it's probably my favorite. It begins with a charming little song in Portuguese (I think the lyrics are about a father trying to get a baby to sleep; there are liner notes, but it's been a long time since I've read them). After that are over a dozen songs in a variety of languages, all perfect for getting a child to sleep, or putting an adult in a very mellow mood. Some of the English-language lullabies you find on other CDs tend to drive me nuts, but after hundreds of listenings, I still enjoy these. I think they're well-suited for older children, too, not just babies.
My baby wouldn't sleep without it.......2005-11-06
This album is beautiful. As a parent, it will be one of few moments when you will want to listen to the same thing as your young child. Our daughter's crib was in our room for a long time and all of us fell asleep to these wonderful lullabies. I was actually sad when she outgrew it. I just bought it as a shower gift for the third time. The first two recipients have loved it also.
great baby shower gift.......2005-06-10
We played this CD all the time when my son was younger, and still like to listen to it on long drives now that he is five. I've given this one and the Celtic Lullaby to several friends as baby shower gifts, and everyone has loved them! I definitely recommend this or any of the Ellipsis collection to anyone who wants to go beyond Disney and Sesame Street tunes with their kids.
Wonderful, sweet music.......2005-01-12
I am now purchasing my third copy of this cd as I love it and so do my children. The others are worn out and scratched from continuous playing and travel. The music is very sweet and gives the child great exposure to other languages (my children are growing up in a multi-language home) and gives them exposure to other languages and dialects of Spanish. I highly recommend this cd to all other parents and child care providers.

Wonderful! Crucial to our 4 year old going to sleep.......2006-04-19
We bought this CD when I was pregnant with my now 4 year old daughter. She has listened to it every night for 4 years! If we travel and don't bring it with us, she doesn't sleep! Now after 4 years we are going to replace it because it will no longer play continuously on her CD player and we get woken up numerous times a night to turn it back on! If she wakes up and it's not playing she needs us to come in and turn it back on! It's a beautiful CD. My parents even love it! This will be the first time I've ever bought a second copy of the same CD due to overplaying it! Highly recommended!
This CD has saved our lives!.......2005-02-28
Seriously, we have had some major sleep issues in our house -- and if my son doesn't sleep, none of us sleep! The CD cover does state that there are supposed to be 36 songs, and there certainly are not 36 tracks, but it is more of a medley style with pieces woven into each other. I like it better this way as it seems to induce sleep easier than other lullaby CDs that have very distinct songs, track ending, then another song. This style is less distracting. I particularly like the instrumental version of "Sleep my child."
My child has been listening to this CD at bedtime for about a year now and it has become a real source of comfort -- lulling him to sleep more easily and with better dreams. We have even had fewer issues with night wakings. Beautiful and peaceful music. Highly recommended! I really don't know what I would do without it.
Great night time music........2004-06-18
We had been given a Lullaby CD of music by a friend when our daughter was born, but it was terrible. The music was much too up tempo. I felt like it was winding up by daughter instead of settling her down. This CD on the other hand is perfect for bedtime. The music is soft and slow. Even I start to yawn when I it. True, there are only 11 tracks when 36 are listed, but aside from that the CD is worth the money. It goes with us everywhere.
My son has listened to this CD nightly for over 2 years!.......2003-07-22
This CD is part of his bedtime routine and he asks for his every night - "Turn moosic on, Mama." It is nice, soothing music that helps him nod off. We even take this CD on trips with us so he still has his same night-night music. ; )
We have a new baby now and I am ordering the same CD for her room! I highly recommend this CD for helping your child wind down for night time.
Oops my mistake..........2001-11-15
I had first thought that this CD only gives 11 songs but it is 36, but it's a disappoinment they way that they do it but combining like 3 songs into 5 minutes. My advice: save your money and purchase something that gives you the whole deal!

Inspired by 1992's 'Til Their Eyes Shine: The Lullaby Album, an all-female collection of sleepy-time songs for children, Daddies Sing Good Night proves that men are no less tender in nurturing their wee ones. Or at least that's true of these men--including Jesse Winchester, Doc Watson, Peter Rowan, and the late Townes Van Zandt--who wrote the songs for their own offspring, and, in their day jobs, rank among the finest practitioners of folk, country, and bluegrass. In guiding their young charges to dreamworld, these fathers visit exotic lands, lonesome prairies, and even the wide heavens on the gossamer wings of horses. Parental listeners will likely detour into the recesses of their own hearts, in exploring the special bond and soothing strength of fatherhood. --Alanna Nash

A beloved favorite in our household for 3 children (and their parents).......2006-12-14
We've listened to this music through the course of three babies and now three young children, who still select it as one of their favorites for nighttime music. Particular favorites are Tim and Mollie O'Brien's "Hush While The Little Ones Sleep", Michael Doucet's Cajun chanson to his son Ezra, Peter Rowan's haunting "On The Wings Of Horses", and Leon Redbone's typically old-timey "Russian Lullaby". Doc Watson, Townes Van Zandt and dobro genius Jerry Douglas turn in beautiful performances, too. But all the tracks have their own magic. Highly recommended for those who like roots Americana, folk and bluegrass.
Not What I was expecting.......2006-06-18
I was looking forward to giving this to my husband for his first Fathers Day and was expecting sweet mellow lullabies, I had to take it out of CD player after the 3rd song. We were extremely disappointed in this purchase
Lovely for naptime and mellow-time........2006-05-17
I got this from our local library to test it out with my 15-month-old daughter -- my husband is a country & folk music fan, so I thought I'd get it for his benefit. But, after just two days, I returned it and raced to the store to buy it for MY benefit. The only other lullaby CD I've liked so strongly is Putomayo's "Dreamland." "Daddies Sing Goodnight" is a wonderful mix of music, some cowboy-ish, some bluegrass, some just folksy. "Sweet Baby James" is gorgeous, and "Long Timey Ago" always makes me get a little choked up. I'm surprised that one reviewer says the songs/voices are scary, as that hasn't been our experience -- in fact, we find this a great calming, happy CD for mellow times, not just for naptimes. We're getting to know the songs well enough to sing along, which just adds to the pleasure.
scary songs.......2006-02-25
Based on other reviews I picked this cd for my 6 month old for something different than lullabys. Big mistake. The voices are so low and dark that he is scared of it. I use music in the car to calm him since I can't reach him in the back and this music just gets him more upset. Maybe he'll grow into it- for the price I paid I hope so- there are much less expensive collections he just loves.
Great for young and old.......2005-10-06
My mom bought my husband this CD when I was pregnant with our first. It has comforted us through births, car rides, and bedtimes. A great soothing CD.

Great Lullabies.......2007-03-28
My husband and I play this cd every night while we rock our triplets to sleep. As several of the other reviewers have said this is a great cd to sing along to (even for those of us with very limited musical abilities). My personal favorite: Home on the Range.
Part of sleep routine.......2006-07-18
I started listening to this CD before my twin boys were born, so I could be able to sing along to all the songs when they arrived. Even if you're not a natural born singer, the songs are really catchy, with soothing arrangements that will calm a sleep deprived dad.
Now the CD is part of our bedtime routine. Humming the tunes has also helped calm our babies during fussy times. Choosing good music for babies is important. Make sure you choose something you like - your babies will respond well if the music makes mommy/daddy happy too!
excellent.......2005-12-18
even after hearing it over and over and over, I still enjoy the music.
The music transports you back to childhood..........2003-09-26
I was impressed with the cover art, and excessive packaging, but when I heard the music, I would have been satisfied with a brown paper wrapper. This CD is for both children and adults, with high production quality and a variety of intricate arrangements. Anyone who appreciates beautiful music will enjoy this remarkable collection of folk, gospel, and old country music, which offers broad appeal with a consistent focus. I thought the vocals on Susie Tallman's "Hush Little Baby" were angelic, and that was my favorite track.
Beautiful music!.......2003-09-02
This is by far our favorite lullaby cd. The music is so beautifully soothing... some songs almost hauntingly beautiful. We listen to it with our 15 month old twin girls as part of their bedtime routine. I highly recommend it.
