4 out of 5 stars Review of Soundtrack.......2007-07-12

It's a very good album, especially if you don't have his other albums because it's mostly a compilation of other albums, with a few "new" ones thrown in, like "Devil or Angel".

5 out of 5 stars Great music.......2007-05-18

I love the music on the CD, did not find myself happy, when I found the same product after my purchase for less money with other mail order companys, will double check Amazon's price in future orders.

5 out of 5 stars Polished performance.......2007-04-07

If you like Doo-Wop I highly recommend giving this cd a listen. They have a way of re-doo-ing, these songs that is really smooth. Close your eyes and let it take you back. The harmonies, the music itself, is top notch. If you've never heard Kenny Vance and the Planotones you owe yourself a listen. You won't be disappointed. I'm not an expert, but I have 2 cd's by them, and I am impressed.

5 out of 5 stars soundtrack to doo wop era...kenny vance.......2007-01-23

5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2007-01-10

The service was excellent and the product was in very good shape.I especially liked the quick service.

Product Description

Music for Little People is celebrating their 15th anniversary, with these carefully selected songs from a wide assortment of award-winning titles. After producing seventy releases and receiving over one hundred awards, it wasn't easy! With its wide diversity of music and artists, Music for Little People's reputation for quality musical product for children of all ages, makes it a family listening experience extraordinaire! IKO IKO by Buckwheat Zydeco BABY BELUGA by Raffi YELLOW SUBMARINE by Carrie Brandon THE MONSTER MASH by Andrew Gold DAY-O (THE BANANA BOAT SONG) By Taj Mahal featuring Cedella Marley Booker THE LITTLE RED CABOOSE by Sweet Honey In The Rock FLYING LESSON by Michelle Shocked WOOLY BULLY by Los Lobos SHAKE A TAIL FEATHER by Taj Mahal & Linda Tillery NURSERY RHYME MEDLEY by The Persuasions ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK by Bill Haley & The Comets SKIP TO MY LOU by John McCutcheon ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET by Maria Muldaur LIGHT UP THE WORLD by Joanne Shenandoah & Tina Malia MBUBE (THE LION SLEEPS TONIGHT) by Ladysmith Black Mambazo

Amazon.com

Music for Little People has been living up to its moniker with a cornucopia of remarkable children's music releases since the mid-1980s. Its 15th Anniversary Collection is something of a greatest-hits package, with such notable "adult" performers as Taj Mahal (doing "Shake a Tailfeather"), Los Lobos, Michelle Shocked, the Persuasions, Maria Muldaur, and others. But it's the forever-young Raffi with "Baby Beluga" and Ladysmith Black Mambazo's "Mbube (The Lion Sleeps Tonight)" that will especially appeal to the little folks. Throw in Buckwheat Zydeco's rockin' Cajun version of an old New Orleans hit "Iko Iko" and Bill Haley and the Comets' timeless blast from the '50s, "Rock Around the Clock," and you get a party record the whole family will enjoy in the car or at home. Did somebody say Music for Little People rocks? Yes, and a whole lot more, too! -Martin Keller

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great CD with a hidden benefit for parents.......2006-02-03

We have played this CD about a zillion times in the car. Parents will have to endure Raffi and a child singing Yellow Submarine, but that's a small price worth paying. I love several of the tracks on this CD, especially Iko Iko. My kids (ages 2 and 6) love all the songs. The two year old's favorite is Little Red Caboose, but she has also learned the backup vocals for Monster Mash. My six year old's favorite is Day-O. So both parents and kids can thoroughly enjoy listening to this CD, and even belting out some of the tunes themselves.

But there is also a secret benefit, that you must not let your children in on. Although most of the songs are very lively, the last couple of tunes wind down the pace considerably. More than once, my little nap-avoiders have conked out before they got all the way through Mbube. It's worth having to listen to Baby Beluga.

3 out of 5 stars Overall, This CD is More for Adults than Children.......2002-07-26

Naturally, that is my humble opinion. Many of the tracks, as you can see from the listing of songs/artists, are well-known recordings, and not geared towards children. "Monster Mash" and "Wooly Bully," while great and fun music, just aren't the kinds of songs my three-year-old, one-year-old, and I enjoy rocking out to together. Give us the traditional kids fare, like that which makes up Music for Little People's "Playtime Favorites"! If you're of like mind, this album may not be for you.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD to engage you and your child.......2001-04-24

We just recently received our CD and we love it. My son (7 months old) and I play it almost every afternoon and we sing and dance and his little eyes just light up! And sometimes my son just enjoys listening quietly.

I debated on whether to get this or another CD collection by one artist and I'm really glad I decided on this one because it provides such a variety of songs, music, and artists and that's one of the things that makes this CD so good. Plus we now have been exposed to several artists we would not have known which opens up new windows of music opportunities.

I would definately buy this as a gift for friends and will look for additional CD's produced by the same company as well as some of the artists of our favorite songs on this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Great for the car.......2001-02-24

My daughter and I love this collection of songs. We've learned the words to all of the songs and delight in listening to the music over and over. We particularly like to listen to this when we drive in the car. It keeps us both awake and entertained. The songs are adult versions of classic and contemporary songs, performed by accomplished artists. No annoying out of tune or overly high pitched voices. The album is pleasing to both adult and kids' ears. We like this collection so much that I have purchased other Music for Little People collections.

4 out of 5 stars Music for the Whole Family.......2000-07-14

While this CD may not be a soothing bedtime elixer, it is just what the Dr. ordered if you're looking for a fun, sophisticated selection of songs which will appeal to the whole family. While the previous reviewer didn't think it calmed her child for bed, the fact that this CD captured her daughter's attention and imagination suggests that these songs do indeed encourage cognitive development and music appreciation. And it doesn't hurt that the parents, grandparents and siblings of these young listeners will also find themselves humming along to this infectious collection of wonderful tunes.

4 out of 5 stars Good stuff..........2006-08-14

For any fan of a cappella music, this is a great album to own. In my humble opinion, Acappella as a group has had a somewhat spotty album history. Some of their albums have been great, and some have been fairly non-descript. It doesn't help that the roster of the group is always changing.

In any case, this release is a fantastic collection of their songs, some new (in 1998) and many old. Some of my favorite tracks are "Special Delivery" (what a great bass line!!) and "Walkin' That Line" (what a great tenor line!!).

If you want one collection of this wonderful Christian a cappella group, this is a great choice. I always enjoy listening to it!!

5 out of 5 stars I Raised My Three Children on Acapella.......2006-06-14

Acapella has been a tremendous part of our family life.
I recommend their music for its message and for the experience of what can be done with the human unaccompanied.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Acappella!.......2002-12-27

This incredible collection will grab from the very first song and never let you go until you survive the climactic last song which is a dynamic melody of several of their songs. My absolute favorite song on this album (if I were to be put to death unless I could pick just one favorite!) would be their "Not My Will But Thine" - I crank this one up so I can hear every nuance it has to offer. A powerful album!

5 out of 5 stars Greatest Hits from the Greatest Christian Acappella.......2001-04-14

You would think it wouldn't take 60 albums for a group to record a greatest hits album. I have no idea why it took so long, but I'm glad they did. I own almost all of their albums and having their greatest hits on one CD is awesome. This album is jammed with spiritually moving songs.

I particularly like the additions to this album that were not on a previous album... Teaching the Truth in Love, Special Delivery, and the Medley.

"Teaching the Truth" deserves its place on a greatest hits album and is one of the most popular Acappella songs of all time (it climbed high on the Christian charts). "Special Delivery" is good song to think about what God has given us. "The Medley" is perfect for the album because they just couldn't fit all of their great songs on one album (since they waited so long). So, they just made a Medley of alot of their older songs that deserve their places in the Greatest Hits.

This album is a must-have for all Acappella fans and is a great introduction to the group for non-Acappella fans. It has 17 tracks, including the Medley which is over 10 minutes and contains about 8 song parts.

5 out of 5 stars The absolute best!.......2000-09-17

This is the best christsian CD! Whenever I'm in a bad mood, this CD has me singing along at the top of my lungs and just makes the day a little better. This CD is great, even if you don't like christian music much. And if you think that because there's no instruments, it's not going to be good, think again. You don't even realize that there's no instruments. This is one of my favorite CDs!
