Joyous, rich musical world parents and kids alike will love!
papertigger | Watertown, MA United States | 11/06/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"All Around the World is the sensational follow-up to Skip West's debut album, Blue Sky City, which is one of the best children's' music albums ever. In the over commercialized, product tie-in, disposable kids music market, this album stands out as a sincere musical romp that kids will love, and their parents might love more.As with Blue Sky City, All Around the World is immediately joyful and engaging. Perfect for all kids from toddlers to pre-teens, the rock, calypso and hip-hop rhythms will get the youngest kids bouncing around, while the lyrics engage the imagination of the older kids. The broad theme underlying much of this music is the power of the human spirit, and the universal family of mankind. The unspoken subtext is that each child's love in the world is a powerful force.Kids will play their favorite music over and over, typically driving parents nuts, hee hee. And that is where Skip West's music really shines. The musicianship, the variety of musical styles and instrumentation, and the accessibility to both kids and parents with messages and musical gifts for both will contribute to makes All Around the World a family favorite for years. Your kids will fondly remember growing up to this music and want to share it with their children.When Skip sings "you are the love that brings a ship to shore, you are the love that sails the sky, you are the love, the love forever more, you know you are the spirit of us all.", and you see your kids singing along, you won't have to try very hard to imagine that they just might believe that."
