Search - 'Uncle' Danny Quinn :: Don't Miss The Boat

An collection of songs for children and the entire family. Includes many popular sing-a-longs like, "The Unicorn", "Down By The Bay", "The Garden Song", and "You Are My Sunshine", and others. The originals, which are the lifeblood of Uncle Danny's schools performances, bring 'added values' to a music program. Here are a few: "Don't Miss The Boat" (never give up, pay attention, practice makes perfect), "Jesse's Bike" (a special kind of sharing), "This Old Tree" (respecting others, especially your elders), "The Invention Song" (using your imagination). Don't miss the boat on this album (too perfect, I know!). Regardless, this CD is a lively, fun, educational....OK, perfect collection of songs for young people as well as the entire family. There is something soothing, yet energetic about the voice of Danny Quinn, also known to children as 'Uncle' Danny. We have written about Danny for years with his adult folk and Irish music, but there is something truly magical about his children performances. Whether he is by himself or with Tom Gardner as The Uncle Brothers, Danny delivers a musical message that any parent should embrace and feed to their children's ears. From the very unique treatment of "The Unicorn" (I don't want to give it away), to his Elvis-style "You Are My Sunshine", Danny delivers fun as well as many 'added values'. What else could we, as parents, expect from a family CD? Enjoy "Don't Miss The Boat"
