Let’s Boogie!
Get up and dance to the music! Love having a dance party with your child? Then this is the CD for you! A ding-a-ling from the handlebars kicks off Let’s Boogie! with “Bicycle,” a solid rock up-tem po number that puts a little punk in a nod to Queen. A reference to Deep Purple follows on “Faster Scooter Cat,” in which the band plays some great riffs with energy and flair. If there is such a thing as funk-gospel dance music for little kids, “The Freeze” is it.
“Let’s Boogie,” is a full on disco tribute that issues yet another call to get up off the couch and shake it on the dance floor. The funky counting song, “Five Senses,” offers a tip of the hat to the Sesame Street “Pinball Number Count” song. Another bright spot is “Hokey Funky.” This tune has a refreshing take-off on the classic Hokey Pokey song that lets listeners know that FUNK is what it’s all about!
