Product Description:
Put a nickel in the jukebox, assuming you can locate a jukebox, and that you remember what a nickel is. Here's legendary Beach Boy Brian Wilson singing lead and 10-part harmonies on 'Speed Turtle.' The incomparable Neil Sedaka crooning 'Your Nose.' B. B. King brings you a wistful 'One Shoe Blues,' Gerry and the Pacemakers offer 'Mersey Lullaby,' and relative newcomer (in this seasoned company) Patti LuPone of 'Evita' fame sings—what else—the 'Rabbit Tango.' And then there's the hit single from Boynton's Your Personal Penguin sung by the impossibly cute Davy Jones of The Monkees. I mean jeepers, even Sha Na Na is here.
So roll over, Beethoven—and Lieber and Stoller. Boynton & Ford once again bring great words, great music, great performers to children and vintage children alike. And OH! The book! Boynton has filled it with all things 50s and 60s. And, well, golly, it’s so happy and colorful and just terrific, Mister! Grab your saddle shoes, plunk two straws into that swell chocolate malt, and let's twist again like we did last century.

Rating: - Stunning! A Work of Art!
I used to think Boynton's books were "cute." Now, I am absolutely awe-struck with her talent and genius. Boynton and Ford wrote all of the songs and had some of the best musical artists of all time sing this amazing collection. I bought it for my 4-year-old, but fell in love with it myself. Endearing and brilliant artists such as Neil Sedaka, Davy Jones, BB King and Brian Wilson perform on this CD. What an amazing accomplishment! The songs are genius and they sound like they were written and ... Read More
Rating: - Amazing!
My grandson loves this. He is 3 1/2 and would play it constantly if he could. I buy this often for baby gifts. The whole family can listen, and not be bored with it.
Rating: - FABULOUS!
I absolutely love love love this album. O yes and I almost forgot - My child is almost 2 and loves it just as much as I do. To get him interested at first we played the songs along with the pictures in the book which he thought was very funny (especially the song about the dog's nose). It has a great range of famous artists (Including BB king) and the songs are NOT painful to listen to, even over and over and over. I highly recommend this product to anyone who cannot stand another second of boring ... Read More
Rating: - Great for kids of all ages!
I was at a concert in CT when Bobby Vee, my teen idol, introduced Sandra Boynton, the author of the songs with Michael Ford and book titled "Blue Moo" and Bobby Vee proceeded to sing the song he had sung for the CD/book. People around me instantly fell in love with his song,"With You". So, as soon as I got back home to Massachusetts, the next day, I went online to Amazon.com and ordered the CD/book. Love all the songs and drawings. Like the title says, great for kids of all ages.

Rating:  - Sandra Boynton is a favorite
Blue Moo is one of about 6 Sandra Boynton CD/books I've recently purchased. She is clearly one of my favorite authors/composers of children's music and books! What's cool about Sandra is that she writes for kids - BUT her products are just as entertaining for adults! She is one of a kind in her approach to children's learning and entertainment. I can't wait to add more to my collection and wish I'd started much sooner! Blue Moo, and all of Sandra's works, is hip and cool and so much fun for all!
