Synopsis

Album Description

Nicky's Jazz For Kids has received The American Library Association's Notable Children's Recording Award, The Parents' Choice Silver Honor Award, The iParenting Media Award, and was chosen as a Parenting Magazine "Parenting Pick." This jazz for kids CD--the very first and best collection of its kind--provides children with a fun and engaging introduction to jazz with rhyming, fun-filled, sing-a-long songs that they (and you) will never tire of. All tracks were chosen especially for kids by their buddy Nicky The Jazz Cat and were re-mastered from their one-of-a-kind originals. Sung by the world's most celebrated jazz legends, Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Tony Bennett, Cab Calloway, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, Peggy Lee, Louis Prima and Fats Waller, Nicky's swinging and spirited picks are sure to inspire endless singing, dancing and interactive musical play with the whole family. The most car-friendly CD ever!

CD Reviews

WAY more fun than most kid CDs!

Spinspin | Big Apple USA | 12/23/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Yay! After purchasing a pile of CD's for kids, this is the first one I can stand. You dont have to be a jazz fan to appreciate the original quality of these recordings. These are original recordings, not "watered down" versions for kids. Definitely get the book as well! "Nicky the Jazz Cat" which has beautiful pictures of the musicians."

Fantastic CD that the whole family will love!

"We bought this cd for my daughter for Christmas and she absolutlely loves it. In fact, after the first listening the whole family was singing along and even humming the tunes when it wasn't playing. You couldn't ask for a more impressive roster of artists, and the songs are truly enjoyable for all ages. Particularly great are, Chew, Chew, Chew (Chew Your Bubblegum), Everybody Eats When They Come to My House, and Ki Mo Ky Mo. Let's face it, our kids are getting less and less exposure to any kind of authentic music these days. Here's an antidote to Disney radio, and the latest Britney Spears clone. And for God's sake, turn off the DVD player and have them engage some other part of their brain when you're on the road. Our 9-hour Christmas commute was filled with music, reading aloud, story-writing, games, and...wait for it...actually talking to each other. That's right, we kept the DVD player off, and the family survived...happily. Give it, and this CD a try."

One of the most under rated cd's on the market

"This cd has won awards and delighted anyone who has listened. Why it isn't a requirement for kids learning about music, especially in the US where Jazz became Jazz, is beyond me. Perfectly charming songs from the best of the best who made Jazz, lots of passionate Jazz."
