Editorial Review: Album Description: Rockabye Baby! transforms timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies. The delicate sounds of the glockenspiel, vibraphone, and other instruments will lull your little one into a sweet slumber. These versions of Radiohead are sophisticated enough for people of all ages, but sweet enough to introduce your child to rock’s smartest band. Their album Kid A imagines the scope and power of music created by a newborn child. What will your baby dream about while drifting off to these serene interpretations of Radiohead’s best-loved songs? Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Daughter is a Radiohead fan for life nowAs a huge Radiohead fan, I got this for my daughter when she was born. As an infant, it calmed her down everytime. Sometimes I wonder if the reviewers who wrote "why not play the real thing?" ever had an infant with colic. This is great for bedtime and of course the real thing is great for daytime. My daughter still asks for "baby Radiohead" at bedtime and requests original Radiohead in the car. If you are looking for a lullaby album that is not completely annoying, this is the one to get! Rating: - pretty coolAt first I cringed when I heard that someone messed around with Radiohead's music and turned it into a cheap MIDI sounding knock-off. I was wrong. The songs on the album are actually transposed very well for the vibraphone, marimba etc... Makes a great album to put on for some cool background music to relax with. I don't have any kids, but I already know I'm going to have a hard time adapting to all the cheesy music if I do. This is perfect for introducing young people to something a whole lot cooler than they are used to. Anyways, its definitely worth checking out if you are a fan of Radiohead. If you are fan of Radiohead and have young children, I would highly recommend it :) Rating: - AWESOME -- Sounds more like gamelan than a lullabye....When I stumbled across this on iTunes I chuckled. I LOATHE crappily-produced rehashings of popular (or classical, for that matter) music. But when I gave this CD a listen, I was absolutely astonished by how GOOD it is from the perspective of a composer, a percussionist, AND a Radiohead fan. Now, first let me say I listened to the other albums by this group, and they are nowhere NEAR as good as this. In fact, they're pretty bad in my opinion. But the arrangements on this record are absolutely brilliant from the way they are arranged to the ways they are performed and produced. I was expecting to hear a MIDI-rendered music box-sounding thing tinkering away, but was amazed to hear a full percussion ensemble using marimbas, vibraphones, ... Read More: Rating:  - Get your kids the real thingI love the idea of introducing little ones to grand music from a grand band, and the song choices on this album are perfect, but not only are these instrumentals lame and boring, but they very much remind true Radiohead fans how good the real thing would be for kids and even babies. Songs such as "Subterranean Homesick Alien" and "No Surprises" are PERFECT lullabies in their original Radiohead form, so how about parents wising up and playing Radiohead for their kids rather than children's junk, with this album being included in the "children's junk" category. Rating:  - Why?It sounds interesting, kind of fun to give it a listen yourself... But for your baby? All the songs here are "safe", just make a playlist of the real Radiohead songs for your baby. Why not? It's not as if they're raucous, or have a bunch of swearing. |
