 Rating:  - Alternative Cartoon Craziness from bands that matter!This album is laden with great talent, solid production and most of all fun, fun, fun! The songs are not just silly, they rock! Curious? Like many other people I have had this album since it was released and have never gotten tired of it. This project could have so easily been soulless and stupid, but the bands featured really give it all they've got! Here's a quick review of each track: -The Tra-La-La Song: A high energy, alternative jam. -Speed Racer: A high point for the album, Sponge really shreds on this song and gives it a lot of dimension with motor/guitar sounds. -Sugar, Sugar: Very trippy, slower version of the song, with cute vocals. -Scooby-Doo: An OK song, but not great...a ... Read More: Rating: - New life for an old favoriteI had this CD in college and listened to it a lot. It was a great trip down memory lane, plus a lot of the interpretations were just great songs. I gave away my copy of the CD at some point. Then, one day I was listening to a kids' CD I had gotten for my son and heard one of the songs from this CD on it. I bought another copy of this from Amazon and played it for my son - he LOVED it. He loves to dance and there are some very danceable songs on here (in particular the Violent Femmes cover of "Eep Ork Op Ah-ah" or whatever it is :) and he really enjoyed listening to this, as did I. So - if you are a former early-90s grunge fan who now is old and has kids :) dig out a copy of this and put it on the CD player (if you still ... Read More: Rating: - Enjoyable Classics...I bought this CD the day it came out when I was in college and it's still one of my 5 favorite records 12 years later. The negative review I see here is from people with young kids; I can understand that. Watching the tripe that passes for cartoons these days would make the classics a lot harder to understand. I actually like the Speed Racer cover on this album; I think my favorite track is the Friends/Sigmund medley though. There's definitely not enough material out there about the Krofft brothers and the weird effects they had on us all. I grew up near the tail end of all that, but it was still a big deal. Ideally, I think this record should make us write to Fox and the other purveyors of the ADD-riddled offal I see on Saturday mornings ...

Rating: - Nostalgically sillyHail to a passed era: when cartoons were an excellent balance of nonsense and violence. When bands didn't sound like everybody else. When Saturday mornings were well spent in front of the TV. This CD is great fun and total nonsense. It can make us twenty- and thirty- somethings feel like kids again...well, grown-up kids. There's something so wonderful about hearing our favourite TV themes when we were kids being sung by our favourite bands when we were in high school. Sumblime, The Ramones, Violent Femmes, Butthole Surfers...this album couldn't have a more perfect collection of artists. And nothing beats Wax's "Happy Happy Joy Joy". This CD is great for those parties when everyone comes over in silly pajamas, fuzzy slippers, and big hair. Make ... Read More: |
