What a wonderful CD for children and adults. Well-crafted songs with clever lyrics and talented musicianship make for a 50-minute delight. "At the Bottom of the Sea" has clever word-play, "Surfin' in My Imagination" has some fine surf guitar and inspires some uninhibited dancing, and a great rendition of "Fly Me to the Moon" should have you singing in no time with your child. Each song is worth hearing over and over (and over), and this CD is money well spent. My son laughs and laughs at Eighteen Wheels on a Big Rig," and I am partial to and extremely appreciative of "The Banana Splits (The Tra La La Song)." After all, four bananas make a bunch and so do many more!

I am incredibly impressed with Ralph Covert's abilities to reach a child's imagination without shutting out the adults. I am going to buy this as a gift to all parents I know, and I also plan to purchase Ralph's World's first CD. This CD should be at the top of anyone's Wish List.

This was my second CD of Ralph's. The other is 'Ralph's World.' I cannot decide which I like better. My nearly 2-year-old likes it as well. She doesn't seem to have a favorite song yet; when every song ends, the chorus she sings is 'MORE!'

I also don't have a favorite, but the ones that pop into my head are: 'The Coffee Song' - "M-O-M-M-Y needs C-O-F-F-E-E", 'The Banana Splits' - yes, the theme song to that waaay-back Saturday morning hit, and 'At the Bottom of the Sea' - where the catfish meow-glub and the dogfish woof-glub.

Ralph is a witty and talented singer/songwriter. The music on the CD ranges from JUMPING TUNES to ballads, and even BLUES with 'Clean My Room.' See, another song that is a candidate for my favorite. Sometimes I forget that they are kid's songs, until the verbal-comprehension part of my brain checks back in.

Make room in your children's (and your own) CD collection.

This review is from: At the Bottom of the Sea (Audio CD)

My son received this CD for his 3rd birthday over two years ago, and it is still THE ONE. For all of the joy that it has brought, I can honestly say that is the BEST birthday present that he has ever received. While every song has its merits, "The Coffee Song" really touched a nerve and makes my husband & I laugh every time. But watch out for "Many Things to Know" and "Fly Me To The Moon"... you may not want your child catching your voice quivering & your eyes tearing.

Only an incredibly talented musician could appeal so well to both parents and children. This is the CD you need to own.
