This review is from: Billboard Presents: Family Travel Classics - Memorable Songs From Film And Television (Audio CD)
Family sing-alongs in the car aren't what they used to be. Sometime during the last century, kids and grownups maintained their sanity (and wakefulness) during long trips with "BINGO" and "99 Bottles of Beer." Nowadays, apparently, "Be Kind To Your Web-Footed Friends," et al. have been replaced by hit showtunes from "The Wiz," the theme from the original "Star Trek," and selections from "Brady Bunch" reruns. Granted, the "Star Trek" theme isn't hum-along-friendly, and no one I've ever met has reported singing tunes from "Doctor Dolittle" en route to summer camp, but this compilation was put together by Rhino, the famed reissue label. And, surely, Rhino knows what people listen to. So grab this one before it's gone forever, so that the next time the kids beg from the back seat, "Put on some Judy Garland!" you'll have just the CD on hand to keep the peace.
