3.0 out of 5 stars Bart, go to your room!, October 25, 2003
This was the first album released by the Simpsons. It wasn't songs from their show, but rather songs recorded especially for this album. Some of the songs are good, some are not. Here are my thoughts:

1. "Do the Bartman" is a fun rap song by Bart. They actually made a video of this song.

2. "School Day" is a lousy cover version of a Chuck Berry song, by Bart and Buster Poindexter. Joe Walsh provides lead guitar.

3. "Born Under a Bad Sign" is a cover version of an Albert King blues song by Homer. It is pretty decent. Guitar playing by B.B. King gives it some authenticity.

4. "Moanin' Lisa Blues" was a song that was actually featured on show, although this version is much longer. It is one of the better songs here.

5. "Deep, Deep Trouble" is another fun rap song by Bart. This one was produced by D.J. Jazzy Jeff.

6. "God Bless the Child" is a terrible cover version of a classic Billie Holiday song by Lisa. Lisa, you are no Billie Holiday!

7. "I Love to See You Smile" is pretty dull cover version of a Randy Newman song by Homer and Marge. Dr. John plays the piano solo.

8. "Springfield Soul Stew" is a pointless cover version of a King Curtis song, with narration by Marge. The original version was titled "Memphis Soul Stew".

9. "Look at All These Idiots" is an okay song by Mr. Burns, where he criticizes the workers in his plant.

10. "Sibling Rivalry" is a cloying duet by Lisa and Bart. Talk about ending the album on a bad note!

In conclusion, this album is really for hardcore Simpsons fans only. But if you like the Simpsons that much, you probably bought this album a long time ago.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Album!, September 27, 2000
By RR (NY,NY) - See all my reviews
This is by no means the best Simpsons album ever(Songs in the Key of Sprigfield and Simpsons Simphonic are much better) but lets face it any real Simpsons fan will love this album! The songs are clever and funny,and the music is well written. If you buy this hoping to hear songs from the show,buy the other 2 instead..this album is for the hardcore Simpsons lover! Best songs- "Look At All Those Idiots" by Burns and Smithers , and "Deep Deep Trouble" by the Bartman himself! Get this album!

5.0 out of 5 stars I am shocked, June 29, 2000
By Mike Reed (West Jordan, UT) - See all my reviews
Who would've thought that The Simpsons could sing so well on what is actually a pretty serious album. Sure, "Look At All Those Idiots", "Sibling Rivalry", and "Born Under A Bad Sign" are comedy, Lisa does a great saxamaphone job on "God Bless The Child" and Homer and Marge pull off a great duet of "I Love To See You Smile". Of course, Bart's "Deep, Deep Trouble" became a hit, and "Do The Bartman" became a signature song, but they both take a backseat to "School Day", a great, rousing duet with Bart and the original singer of the classic rock n roll song. A slight letdown is "Moanin' Lisa Blues" which should have been left over for "Songs In The Key Of Springfield." But that's not enough for me to not recommend this CD. BUY THIS CD!
