Free Music Notes for Shake Sugaree: Taj Mahal Sings And Plays For Children
Free Music Review: This Cd Sucks.
Hit: 1 Stars
I have never been a huge Taj Mahal fan, and this Cd is what completely turned me off him. Plus kids don't want to hear all the lectures and sanitized music, they want to hear the real thing. When I was a kid I grew up listening to Chris Smither and he never did any childrens stuff. So just get your kid the real thing
Shake Sugaree: Taj Mahal Sings And Plays For Children Poster
Folk blues may not seem to be the stuff of a children's album, but this award-winning 1988 disc consists of a delightful series of songs for kids despite (or because of?) its blue roots. Mahal sets an intimate, storytelling mood with his casual introductions, and the spontaneous sing-along choruses (provided by his children, Ahmen and Deva) add to the gathered-round-the-campfire feel. Still, this is a blues record--undeniably gentle and sweet, but blues all the same--and that's what makes it such a wonderful family collection. Whimsical enough to please children, it contains enough bite to captivate adults. For every song about a boy riding his big-eared puppy halfway around the world ("Little Brown Dog") there's another about playing the ponies in Houston ("Light Rain"). It's all topped off with a joyous version of Elizabeth Cotton's "Shake Sugaree," with Mahal's children singing, "Oh, Lordy me, then we'll shake sugaree / Everything I've got is done and pawned." Strange material for a children's record, but it works. --Percy KeeganBlues Music CDs
