Go Waggaloo CD Review & Giveaway

Written by  • March 11th, 2010 •  • 87 CommentsFiled under: Finished Giveaways

I am back to review another family friendly CD called Go Waggaloo by Sarah Lee Guthrie and Family.  First a little about the label that produced the CD, Smithsonian Folkways Recording:

 

 Smithsonian Folkways Recordings is the nonprofit record label of the Smithsonian Institution, the national museum of the United States. We are dedicated to supporting cultural diversity and increased understanding among peoples through the documentation, preservation, and dissemination of sound. We believe that musical and cultural diversity contributes to the vitality and quality of life throughout the world. Through the dissemination of audio recordings and educational materials we seek to strengthen people’s engagement with their own cultural heritage and to enhance their awareness and appreciation of the cultural heritage of others.

Go Waggaloo:

 

Gifted singer-songwriter Sarah Lee Guthrie brings charm, freshness, and feeling to her debut recording of music for children and families. Joined by her husband Johnny Irion, their two young daughters, and a host of other family and friends including Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and Tao Rodriguez Seeger, Guthrie presents thoughtful yet playful recordings of traditional songs and new compositions. The album includes three songs featuring lyrics by Woody Guthrie never before put to music and eight songs written by Sarah Lee and family. Go Waggaloo continues the Guthrie song-making tradition forged by Sarah’s grandfather, Woody Guthrie. 34 minutes, 13 tracks, 36-page booklet, for children of all ages.  Retails for $11.98.

My take:   This CD was completely different than any CD I have listened to before.  You find yourself swaying to the music’s beats and Sarah Lee Guthrie’s voice is very distinctive.  Our favorites:  Go Waggaloo, Take Me to Show-and-Tell, Bright Clear Day.  Mommy especially loved If Mom Had Four Hands and Brush Your Teeth Blues #57.
