Songs My Family Taught Me

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
What John Storms-Rohm lacks in knock-you-back charisma, he makes up for with genuine, gimmick-free feeling. Skipping though Songs my Family Taught Me, one instantly falls in step with the from-the-family vibe: children's standards "Puff the Magic Dragon," "Home on the Range," and "Brahm's Lullaby" lose their same-old, same-old status when they're wedged between "La Bamba," "Three Little Birds," and "Here Comes the Sun"—songs that parents might have picked up in the backseat of the family station wagon. Stick-to-what-works arrangements and solid piano work extend the appeal of Storms-Rohm's music. If he chucks the too understated vocals on his next outing, a whole lot more households will find themselves singing along to the Storms-Rohm family soundtrack. --Tammy La Gorce

5 out of 5 stars This is a Great Album!.......2003-06-27

This album is great to throw in while driving the kids to and from school in the morning. With time-tested melodies from songs such as Puff the Magic Dragon or The Rainbow Connection I even find myself singing along with the kids! Great arrangements with an enjoyable balance of textures. I'd recommend this album to anyone... even if they don't have kids!
