Blue Moo

From the Editors

Put a nickel in the jukebox, assuming you can locate a jukebox, and that you remember what a nickel is. Sandra Boynton is back with another hit collection of children's songs! Blue Moo: 17 Jukebox Hits from Way Back Never recreates the fabulous jukebox era with a stack of tunes written by Boynton and her songwriting partner, Michael Ford, and sung by some of the biggest names in music. Here's legendary Beach Boy Brian Wilson singing lead and 10-part harmonies on "Speed Turtle." The incomparable Neil Sedaka crooning "Your Nose." B.B. King brings you a wistful "One Shoe Blues," Gerry and the Pacemakers offer "Mersey Lullaby," and John Ondrasik of Five For Fighting delivers the "Big Band Sound." And then there's the hit single from Boynton's Your Personal Penguin sung by the impossibly cute Davy Jones of The Monkees. I mean jeepers, even Sha Na Na is here. So roll over, Beethoven - and Leiber and Stoller. Boynton & Ford once again bring great words, great music, and great performers to children and vintage children alike.

Customer Response

delightful nostalgia
lyrics and tunes are light and catchy. Kids love their silliness. Puts a smile on your face - whether you're 3 or 60. And the 60 year olds (all you grandparents) will enjoy the memories the tunes evoke.

Blue Moo Cd & Boook
I bought this for my granddaughter's 4th birthday & the whole family loves it! Has really catchy, cute tunes that adults like as well as the kids. Would recommend this for anybody.

Blue Moo
This is a great CD. We ordered it under "Music/CD's" but we got a book and no CD. We haggled with the vendors about two of the same situations and got nowhere with them. We only got half our money back and we stilldon't have the CD. I am afraid to order again because I don't trust the system. We were very dissatisfied.

Boynton scores again! (pun intended)
Along with "Philadelphia Chickens" and "Dog Train," "Blue Moo" is a truly remarkable collection of songs. So much kids' music is just silly, but in Boynton's choices (and performers!) kids are entertained and adults are engaged rather than patiently tolerant. It's good music. B.B. King's 'One Shoe Blues' is worth the price of the CD, in my opinion.

Blu Moo CD
If you can only make ONE CD purchase for your toddler, this is the one to buy. The songs are upbeat and fun. You may even find yourself "singin' in the shower"
