Free Music Notes for Tabby Road
Free Music Review: Tabby Road = Love at First Listen
Hit: 5 Stars
Tabby Road is the fourth Recess Moneky CD we've purchased, and the only other that rivals it in terms of the instant appeal on first listen is the first album we purchased, Field Trip. It took a couple of days to warm up to Final Funktier, and a bit longer with Aminal House, but Tabby Road has the perfect amount of polish, whimsy and fun -- not to mention the sheer musical talent, which is why we began our Recess Monkey collection from the a start.
My favorites are 'Pedal Power' -- a very sweet song about learning to ride a bike, 'The Sandbox Song' which packs this childhood nostalgia-type punch, and the very silly song -- yet oddly 'hip' song, 'Mummy Don't Allow' which has a sort of Grateful Dead musical feel while making creative fun of the dual meanings of the word 'mummy.'
My two girls are super-fond of 'Kitty Sister' and of course, the fast-paced SL-Double E-P-Over.
But don't make the mistake of assuming that the preschool subject matter waters this music down -- it doesn't. This isn't just 'kid's music'. The style which walks a line between 1960's Beatles-esque and a more modern sort of indie rock will have appeal to anyone who appreciates the genre, and the lyrics capture childhood in a way that isn't trite. One of the more interesting aspects of the album that we didn't notice until we'd been listening to it for a couple months is the way that the song 'Monster Truck' which had previously been one of the less-appreciated songs on the album, combines riffs from a number of other songs -- as well as seeming to poke fun at the larger Hummer-type vehicles taking over the parking lots these days.
If you're looking for music for your kids that you'd actually listen to when they're *not* in the car, look no further. I love these guys, but more importantly -- my kids love them, and that's probably the understatement of the year.
