5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Kaye is as enjoyable as ever. Feb 28 2009
By C. J. Reno - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Back 'in the olden days' when I was a child we had Grimm's Fairy Tales as read by Danny Kaye on LP, which I listened to hundreds of times. I still have the LP, but have no way to play it, so I was thrilled to discover that the album had been published on CD. Now my children can enjoy it as well.

Mr. Kaye gives brilliant performances of the fairy tales on this album. I would warn anyone new to the real Grimm's fairy tales (as opposed to the Disneyfied versions) that they are somewhat darker and more violent than what is commonly thought of when the word fairy tale is mentioned.

5.0 out of 5 stars When Kids Listened to Fairy Tales May 9 2010
By Henry Heth - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Danny Kaye is probably unknown to many who are under 45 or so. He was an old school entertainer---could sing, dance, act, tell jokes, etc.---which is a lost art. Chris Walken is probably one of the few still performing that can do it all--for him, from tap to "more cowbell".

Anyhoo, when I was a lad, I listened to this album. A lot. And once the wonders of the Inter-Web-Nets began making searching for such a record (LP, not CD) viable, I did so, and I found it, and bought it. This is a very adept telling of some classic stories. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates what I just wrote.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Fairy Tale Recording EVER! April 17 2009

We listened to this every night as we fell asleep and memorized each story. The way Danny Kaye performs these is just priceless. The accents and the way he tells the stories is so funny. I still love these stories!
