My kids love the songs, the lyrics are cute, the vocalist is fine. The music is computerized shlock. If you like the sound of Barney, then you will love the backing music. The lyrics and singer deserve better. This is a basic issue I have with most of Boyton's CDs. More recent productions have included better lead artists, but the synthetic music still lurks in the background. On Rino tap, the "horns" sound like a early 90's synth patch. It is fine for the kiddos, but my god, after the 20th listen kill me. Hire session players, and you have a 5 star kids album. I expect more.
