Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
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 1950s, "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

Overall, This CD is More for Adults than Children,
By D. Holland (Orange County) "busy_mom" (Laguna Niguel, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 15th Ann. Collection Celebrat (Audio CD)
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.

Great CD to engage you and your child,
By Jody Schaad (Springfield, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 15th Ann. Collection Celebrat (Audio CD)
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.

Great for the car,

This review is from: 15th Ann. Collection Celebrat (Audio CD)
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.
