my four year old adores this CD. i mean, ADORES. he loves to sing "stairway to heaven" while falling asleep; and one day, while driving to work with his dad, they heard the "real" "stairway to heaven" on the local classic rock station. he yelled out "this is stairway to heaven!"

not all of the CDs in this series work. there's something incredibly creepy, for example, listening to the pink floyd lullaby "mother" when you know the words. but the zeppelin one goes down peacefully and easily. i think the most touching moment of my evenings these days is when my son and i listen to the song "thank you" and he sings to me:

"when mountains crumble to the sea
there will still be you and me."

thought i'd hate it. and i love it. go figure.

I was thrilled when I saw this series of lullabye CDS - however a lot of them sound like horror-movie music. Sometimes the hard stuff does not translate well into an innocent sound. This was by far the best we've heard. Not only do the melodies work with baby-friendly instruments, the arrangements themselves are complex enough to hold mom and dad's interest too. A few of the other CDs in the series are a little plunky and repetitive, but not this. It's made me appreciate Zep more for their skill in crafting a layered song.
It's become a favorite in our house. Highly Recommended!

I ordered this cd for my husband-he just isn't the Braham's lullabye type. He loves this cd and has shared it with all his work buddies. I think it's great that he has something he can enjoy rocking our baby to sleep with too.

Even though it is "babyfied". You will enjoy listening to the Led Zeppelin tunes. We love Led Zeppelin so the purchase was an easy choice. I would recommend for anyone who likes Led Zeppelin and has a baby.

When I ordered this I thought that it wasn't going to be anything special but wanted to try it out anyways. I like to have music play in my baby's room at night and couldn't take "london bridge" over the monitor anymore. All I can say is that I never knew Zep could be made into soft music-box style music and still be Zep. Kashmir was the more impressive of all the songs. My baby loves the music and and can drift off to sleep w/o annoying thoughts of children's lullibies playing in the background. I recomend this product for those looking for an alternative to the traditional lullibye.

This is a fantasic CD. I was having a hard time finding a good lullaby CD and this is a great one. My 3 month old falls asleep to this every night and I love listening to this too.

My wife and I received "Rockabye Baby: the Cure" at our baby shower. It was very good, and I wanted more!

We got the Led Zeppelin album this Christmas (2007). I am amazed at how beautifully some of the somgs translate into lullabies! Some of the songs were predictably sweet and melodic, like Stairway to Heaven, Going to California and D'Yer Maker. But I was surprised and elated to see some of Zep's more "experimental" songs on the playlist. Offbeat classics like Dazed and Confused and Kashmir are amazing to hear, and remind me of more "adult" children's songs like "Peter and the Wolf."

My baby enjoys the music, and I relish listening to these rock-and-roll greats with her!

My sister had this cd for her own baby and my daughter went right to sleep when she heard it. i had to get home and purchase it. also got the Cure one which is great. i can sit and rock baby and STILL listen to my favorite songs! i hum a long so its doubly relaxing for her. These cd's are so clever and such a great idea. A 'must purchase' for shower gift.

why couldn't this have been around when i was a baby? oh, i guess because i was born when zeppelin was starting to make it really big. this cd will accompany me (wrapped up) if i'm ever invited to another baby shower. just the sample clips are too cool!

this even puts my 5 year old to sleep in the car. I have learned that music can soathe a irritable baby. it is funny to hear this in lullaby form. hey whatever works...
