Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of Green Day
Price 13.19 USD
Perhaps in response to the growing number of new parents who spent their youth listening to punk, Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of Green Day (just one of many in the collection) remakes some of the trio"s biggest hits using gentle, calming, sleep-inducing percussion and keyboard instruments (vibes, glockenspiel, etc.) instead of the more raucous combination of guitar, bass, and drums. Clearly this is an album meant more for the amusement of the parents, looking for a bit of respite from "Mary Had a Little Lamb," than for the actual musical enjoyment of the child -- but since the versions of "Basket Case," "When I Come Around," and "American Idiot" are soothing enough in their own strange way, it just might do the trick. ~ Marisa Brown, Rovi
