This group has a 1940s Chicago look and feel but is actually from the United Kingdom - they have a terrific sound that is sort of a jazz/swing/pop/combo blend and EVERY song is upbeat - no downers, even when they sing "Who Drank My Beer while I was in the Rear?". The words are easy to understand; you can't help but sing along. This particular release has a somewhat "naughty" drawing on the cover and the CD, but the music will not teach your kids anything worse than what we learned from Burl Ives when we were little (I think there are one or two "d-mn's" and "h-ll's" but they are not emphasized). We first discovered them via some children's "Teletubbies" videos, on which the group has three or four video spots where they really swing some familiar kid's songs (like Hickory Dickory Dock, The Grand Old Duke of York). Those types of songs aren't on this CD, but if they were, you would find yourself enjoying them for the first time since you were a kid, even after dozens (hundreds?) of repetitions. ~Amazon
