5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Children's Album I still Listen to, October 14, 2000

This review is from: For Our Children: 10th Anniversary Edition (Audio CD)

When I was in the fourth grade, my Dad bought us a copy of "For Our Children." Now I am 19 years old and I still listen to it every day. Some of the songs on this album are also written by the artists who did them. Child of Mine, for example was written by Carole King, Country Feelings by Brian Wilson, and a couple of other songs I can't even think of. All of Rhino Records profits from "For Our Children," are donated to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, to help bring hope for children with AIDS and an end to this desease. I hope that Rhino Records who did this, decides to make a Christmas album in the "For Our Children," series. FOR GOODNESS SAKE, STOP READING THIS REVIEW AND BUY THIS CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars IT'S ABOUT TIME!, December 16, 1999

By 

Don Smith (Round Rock, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: For Our Children: 10th Anniversary Edition (Audio CD)

This is one of the *best* children's CD's ever recorded...our daughter listened to this album to go to sleep every night for over a year. Now that we have another child, and our venerable old cassette had just about had it, we have been looking to replace it for quite some time now, only to find that it was no longer in print. I was looking (in vain) all over the 'net today to find a used music dealer with a copy of this CD, and finally came back to amazon.com to get the details of the CD in order to help search, and lo and behold, it's been RE-RELEASED! I bought 3 copies, and if anyone out there has young children, BUY THIS ALBUM NOW! hehe

5.0 out of 5 stars From Ziggy Marley to Barbara Streisand a masterpiece., November 10, 1999

This is the best collection of its kind. It's been out of print for years so hopefully this reissue will garner it the attention it deserves. Buy it for yourself and you'll probably buy a copy for everyone you know. With or without children, they should love it!
