5.0 out of 5 stars Great, Well-Produced Album with Strong Adult Influence, October 10, 2007

By 

Mediaman "TVviewer" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Naked Brothers Band (Audio CD)

Nat and Alex Wolff are pre-teen Nickelodeon stars who have a great first album. Songs are catchy, ranging from the goofy (Banana Smoothie) to the insightful (I Indeed Can See). The cheaper, short-form version of this CD is kid-friendly and a great album that will remind parents of 70s rock groups.

However, the CD notes claim that Nat wrote all but two of the songs and Alex wrote the other two--some of these songs have too much depth for these little kids to have merely written the songs themselves. The great sound probably comes from their producer father who arranged the songs (their famous actress mom also has directed their TV show)--so really this album is not just little kids singing simple tunes. It's kids with famous parents who have taken the raw material from the kids and turned it into something professional. There's nothing wrong with that--it's just that they need to be honest. Some of these songs are way beyond the composing ability of the two young children and show strong adult influence.

Do not buy the more expensive album that includes two extra cuts and a free ringtone. One of the extra cuts has an adult word in it that will make some parents cringe. Otherwise the rest of the songs are safe.

And one more problem--not all of the Wolff Brothers' songs from their TV show are on this CD!?! They are missing Rosalina and Hardcore Wrestlers--so fans of the show may be disappointed that not all the songs from the TV show are on the disc. Otherwise the songs that are on the shorter, 15-song version of the CD are great.

5.0 out of 5 stars The real thing, October 14, 2007

This review is from: The Naked Brothers Band (Audio CD)

Despite the unbeliever's review posted earlier, these kids really do compose their own songs. Yes, their dad (jazz pianist Michael Wolff) does help craft the final *arrangements* for the show, but all of the compositions themselves are the work of Nat and Alex. Having met and interviewed the boys and their dad recently, I was extremely impressed by the level of their talent. These kids are the real thing, and the future looks exceptionally bright for the Wolff brothers. This CD is a wonderful documentation of early talent in bloom, and just the tip of the iceberg in what we can expect from them.

5.0 out of 5 stars NBB is BBN, December 30, 2007

By 

Nintendo Lover "T.J." - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Naked Brothers Band (Audio CD)

Naked Brothers Band is the Best Band from Nickelodeon. The Naked Brothers Band is the best band in history. The songs capture our inner feelings about life and day-to-day items. Nat sings If That's Not Love, Taxi Cab, Banana Smoothie, Crazy Car, Girl of My Dreams, Fishing for Love, I Indeed Can See, I'm Out, Sometimes I'll Be There, L.A., Beautiful Eyes, Run, and Nowhere (I Miss My Family). Alex sings I Could Be and Alien Clones. Of Nat's songs, I like Run, I'm Out, and If That's Not Love. Of Alex's songs, I prefer I Could Be. The songs are well played and backed up by the other band members: Thomas, David, Rosalina, and Qaasim. I fit this CD into my daily routine and am glad I got it.
