Review

How best to describe the San Francisco-based The Sippy Cups? Perhaps they're what would happen if your favorite '70s cover band decided they just wanted to play for preschoolers. And added puppets and jugglers. On their 2005 debut album Kids Rock For Peas!, the seven-member ensemble (recorded live at the Rickshaw Stop in San Francisco) cover a wide range of '60s and '70s songs on the 47-minute disc, from the Beatles ("Dear Prudence") to the Velvet Underground ("Who Loves the Sun") to the Ramones, mostly ("I Wanna Be Elated"). You might ask, you know, those are pretty darn good songs -- in the original -- why in the world would I want to buy cover versions? Well, not that the Sippy Cups' versions are better than the originals, but the vigorous renditions of the songs and the occasional alterations to make them child-friendly (or child-friendlier) give them value in their own right. (They single-handedly rescue War's "Low Rider" from the clutches of beer commercials and "Jungle Boogie" from the clutches of Quentin Tarantino.) If the occasional song seems out-of-place ("Bennie and the Jets") or the live banter just slows the pace down, that's the risk one takes with a live package. (The presence of "Super Guy" will probably bring a smile to the parents' faces.) The songs are probably best for kids ages 2 through 6, though obviously any album covering the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Neil Diamond will probably find fans whose ages reached double-digits long ago. You can check out some video clips here. Recommended, unless for some weird reason you think Lennon/McCartney (or, er, McCartney/Lennon) wasn't that great of a song-writing duo. --Zooglobble - Kid's Music Blog


Product Description

The Sippy Cups celebrated live cover CD recorded in a hip San Francisco 'dayclub' in 2005. The album includes songs by Syd Barrett, The Beatles, Ramones, Velvet Underground, The Rolling Stones and more. A hilarious family friendly rock concert experience that put this sensational band on the map!

5.0 out of 5 stars Relegating the Wiggles to the Dustbin of History, January 27, 2007
By Mark Perlsweig "drmark" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After being a DJ when The Clash was putting out London Calling, seeing the Gang of Four for a $1 admission fee at The Bayou in Washington, DC and interviewing The Edge of U2 in St. Louis, MO when they were playing a club show prior to opening the next day for J Geils (1982), it's hard to get excited about children's music for your kids many years later. You can't exactly take your kid to a Minor Threat or X show in a bad part of town (but my kids do like the B-52's). So all these years later, my wife dragged me to the Tom Chapin show for the third year in a row, and while he was pleasant and the songs were nice, it was getting a little old. Justin Roberts CD's are pretty good mostly because my kids are having a good time but don't think that I am going to be camping out for concert tickets any time soon. The Wiggles were fun to watch with my kid on TV but let's face it, the lyrics stink. And the Wiggles aren't nearly as entertaining as Rocko's Modern Life or Spongebob. The theme song from Fairly Odd Parents smokes any Wiggles tune. So what were the suits at Disney thinking?

Fortunately, in the long run, quality triumphs over all else. And the Sippy Cups have quality and plenty of it. Some reviewers think that their music is more appealing to adults than kids. Not so Joe. I have been to see the Cups and the kids are up dancing and having a good time. In fact more people danced at the Sippy Cups show than the last time I saw REM at Shoreline Ampitheatre a few years back. The Sippy Cups are basically the first band to be unafraid of taking a back catalogue of nearly forty years of rock history and introducing it to your kids. Shouldn't your kids know something about the Velvet Underground? I guess one of the best ways to describe the Sippy Cups and especially their show is as though the Talking Heads decided to do a children's benefit show and have the kids watch it. So even though I have been dropping all these references to the past, it is merely descriptive. What is certain is that as the Sippy Cups evolve, they will certainly be as original as the Monkees were in their day. So when you see them on the telly, think about all of the corporate types who will be kicking themselves for not having jumped on the Sippy Cup bandwagon when they had a chance.

You really don't want your kid to be listening to the Pussycat Dolls and Paris Hilton when he or she gets a little older, do you? The Sippy Cups will help you prevent that unfortunate outcome.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best kids music--ever!, December 29, 2006
By Georgia McNamara (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I hate kids music, and until The Sippy Cups came along I refused to play it anywhere except in the kids' rooms. This CD has earned a place in my iPod! Excellent, amusing covers of adult tunes. Check out their website, [...], to buy the CD (or go to CDBaby) until Amazon starts stocking it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute CD for parents who listen along, October 12, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a cute show...the covers are fun to listen to, we listen to it in the car and it doesn't drive me crazy like some of the typical kids cds, but my kids still like it. I especially like the Jungle Boogie song.
