Synopsis
Album Description Ira Marlowe's first release on Brainy Tunes Records was a winner of the 2006 Parents' Choice Silver Honor. It features 13 songs which are not only full of wonder and imagination, but also challenging and educational. Titles include "Molly the Moose", about a jailbreak from the Bronx Zoo, "The Teasing Bird", in which a nasty bird, weighed down by negativity, finds it can no longer fly, "Krinkledinks and Grodsnips", about tiny monsters who learn to co-exist beneath a bathroom mat, and "There Once Was A Bagel", in which a breakfast staple defies the laws of both gravity and common sense. In addition are highly informative songs such as "Kangaroo", "All About the Moon" and "The Planets' Song". The Brainy Tunes philosophy is to never condescend to kids but rather to challenge them, including bits of material just enough over their heads to trigger questions and curiosity. Above all, we take pride in creating music that parents will want to hear as often as their kids will want to play it. Similar CDs |
CD ReviewsBest CD of Kids' Music - Fun for Moms and Dads Too! Holly Bishop | The Wild Western United States | 08/16/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have Teasing Bird and the follow-up to this CD, All the Colors, and love them both. I should mention that my daughter, who I purchased these CDs for, loves them too. She is three and tends to get stuck on one song that must be played over, and over, and over, and over... Despite the fact that I have now heard "Another Crazy Day" (track one on the All the Colors CD) about 100 times in the past week, I still love to hear it. Now THAT'S a testament to a good song and a great children's songwriter - a parent who doesn't get sick of the songs. I find myself playing the CDs in the car long after my daughter has been dropped off at daycare. Even my husband has become a big fan of Ira Marlowe. The songs run the gamut - quirky, meaningful, danceable, and, above all, fun. Although my daughter loves "Another Crazy Day," "The Teasing Bird," and "Molly the Moose," I am partial to "The Ballad of Pepe the Pinto" and "There Once was a Bagel." Fun, fun, Fun!!" Great for kids and Mom will sing along too! J. Rowland | Santa Cruz, CA | 11/23/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "We love this CD! It's the first CD requested by my two daughters when we get in the car. Even though my 10 year old likes the pop music she has on her Ipod, this CD is her current favorite. These songs are fun and singable while providing some insight/lessons about life. Molly the Moose, Kangaroo and Joanie and the Genie are the big favorites. The musical style varies so it's not boring. I highly recommend this for kids up to the age of 11."
