CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com essential recording Tom Chapin, the younger brother of singer/songwriter Harry, has made a stealthy career out of creative children's music. He writes tunes that are lyrically charming, musically fetching, and altogether fun. Even with a string of recordings as impressive as his, Zag Zig is the best. It incorporates Chapin's fondness for intricate horn charts (on the Latin-tinged "Vitamin Si") and his quirky, memorably humorous lyrics on "Backwards Birthday Party." Best of all, the lyrics aren't simply silly: Each song passes on a narrative strand, however brief, that helps kids as young as 2 years old remember turns of phrase, development in a story, and more. --Andrew Bartlett Similar CDs

CD ReviewsNot as good as other Tom Chapin tapes we have 01/13/2000 (3 out of 5 stars) ""Zag Zig" just isn't as good as the other two Tom Chapin tapes we own, "Family Tree" and "In My Hometown." The songs "Vitamin Si" and "R-E-C-Y-C-L-E" are the only real standouts on "Zag Zig," in my opinion. I'd be hard-pressed to choose only two favorites from the other two tapes I mentioned. If you are new to Tom Chapin, go for "Family Tree." I think it's one of the best children's tapes I've ever heard." Zig zag 11/30/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "you can't go wrong with tom chapin. my daughter has been a fan since she was 2 years old. we have all six cds. as a parent i love his music too and can sing right along with my daughter. we love tom chapin."
