Free to Be You and Me(more) »rank: 328by: Marlo Thomas
Our review: :There are thousands upon thousands of children's albums out there, but the one that quietly left its mark with more '70s children than perhaps any other album was this disc. Free to Be...You and Me was a pet project of proud feminist Marlo Thomas (a.k.a. 'That Girl'), and it was born--according to the liner notes--by the desire to provide her niece with music 'to celebrate who she was and who she could be.' Harry Belafonte sings 'Parents Are People,' ex-football great Rosie Grier offers an incredible, touching melody titled 'It's All Right to Cry,' and Diana Ross waxes future-positive on 'When We Grow ...

Pop Fly(more) »rank: 1244by: Justin Roberts
Our review: :Justin Roberts’ Pop Fly is the kind of record that, years hence, when the parents’ hair is graying and the kids have discovered death metal, will still make the whole gang sing (apologies to Barry Manilow). Roberts, on his fifth full-length, continues to craft universally likable pop songs that adhere to the brain like flypaper, while paying extremely close attention to his audience. Few adults get inside the head of the average 7-year-old this convincingly: “He watches out for us when Mom is away/If I were giving grades he’d get a B or an A,” he sings on “Stay-At-Home Dad,” one of several ...

Bob & Larry's Sunday Morning Songs(more) »rank: 3591by: VeggieTales
Our review: :Had a couple of salad vegetables performed Sunday-school songs in our day the way they do here, we parents might have made it through the weekly churchgoing ritual without the regular reaming by our own moms and dads. Delivering the between-song dialogue and cartoon shenanigans that keep kids from drifting off are Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber, who whoop it up from the first track with wah-wah guitar effects, loopy lyrical improv, fellow VeggieTales guest vocalists, and a smattering of big-band swing. A kids' choir provides the starch that saves Sunday morning from becoming a beta-carotene bomb. While Bob twists his ... Detail |
