This foot-tapping, finger-snapping collection is done with a fresh approach. Tom brings humor and imagination to children in Billy the Squid. Parents will be thrilled with this variety of amusing, thought-provoking songs that they, too, can enjoy even after listening for the 20th time. Chapin plays the guitar and banjo throughout the album, while Roseanne Cash and Branford Marsalis join him on the rousing selection "All of My Friends." ~ MusD

Billy The Squid album
 $12.25  
Harry Chapin's younger brother Tom has had a successful career of recording songs for children since the late 1980s.

| | Tom Chapin Zag Zig CD (1994)
Billy The Squid album
$11.55
Tom Chapin is simply one of the most charming performers in the entire children's music field, and Zag Zig is one of his best. Whether it's the zesty horn charts and witty lyrics of "Vitamin Si," or "The Backwards Birthday Party," or this album's installment of the adventures of Bruno, "Bruno's Christmas On The Mall," it's a singalong fun-fest. Topping it off is Chapin's tale of a youngster looking for a way to be a music hero. "Johnny Glockenspiel" is hysterical, danceable, and totally irresistible. ~ Ross Boissoneau
"Zag Zig is truly one of those rare recordings that offers something for everyone in the whole family." ... Publishers Weekly -----Songs: Vitamin Si The Backwards Birthday Party Mikey Won't R-E-C-Y-C-L-E Hi Hi, I Love Ya Zag Zig Bruno's Christmas On The Mall Loose Tooth If ...
| | Phineas & Ferb Phineas and Ferb: Songs From the Hit Disney Tv Series CD (2009) Digipak
Billy The Squid CD music
$10.65
For anyone hasn't watched episodes of the Disney animated series PHINEAS AND FERB, it's highly recommended. It is a Saturday morning cartoon comedy that stars two irrepressibly inventive, multi-talented mischievous nerd geniuses (who happen to be stepbrothers), their vain, hyperactive, scheming sister Candace, and their pet platypus that happens to be a secret agent fighting an evil scientist. The plots are standard, and sometimes so are the jokes, but the characters aren't. One of the show's highpoints is the music, from Bowling For Soup's theme song "Today ...
| | Kids Nursery Rhymes, Vol. 1 CD (2002)
Billy The Squid music CDs
$6.09
Kids Nursery Rhymes, Vol. 1 is an intriguing collection of children's music standards and strange gems from a scarier past. It begins with an odd little song called "Aerophane Jelly" that may or may not be about the tasty French treat. With its female-chorus vocals and loping, slightly unsettling rhythm, the song suggests the campy, naïve genius of the Shaggs, or those deceptively twee ditties that always accompany the crazed maniacs' childhood flashbacks in 1980s slasher flicks. In fact, many of the tunes on Kids Nursery Rhymes, Vol. 1 have more in common with the bizarre antics of Deerhoof or Petra Haden's 1999 masterpiece, Imaginaryland -- artists and albums that reprocess the candyfloss and whimsy of children's albums into twisted ...
