Hit: 5 Stars
This CD, "A Frog Named Sam" by Ben Rudnick and Friends, is about as much fun as you can have with your ears. Eleven whimsical, energetic and varied songs will have you tapping your toe, singing along or even out of your chair dancing a jig.
Eight of the songs are original including a mellow ballad about a frog who doesn't like water and therefore seeks his fortune in the city, a jazzy number about three fish (which is the only one I can't understand all the lyrics to), and a racy tune about race cars coming around the track. My two favorite songs (which alone make the CD well worthwhile) are "Drink It Up", a peppy swing-style love song, and "I Need A Hand", a witty take on street safety. My daughter laughs out loud when it gets to the part about "I need a penguin ... I need a toaster ..., etc." Too funny. There are also two instrumental jigs to get you tapping along.
The remaining three songs - "Erie Canal", "Old Joe Clark" and "Greensleeves" are Rudnick and Friends interpretations of traditional folk songs. I don't like them quite as much as the original songs, but they're still quite decent.
This CD is great for kids and adults alike. Not only will your kids have a great time, they'll also learn a number of different musical styles from country to jazz to swing to Irish jig. I wish it came with printed lyrics, but most of the songs are clear enough that they're easy to sing along to anyway. Highly recommended.
