What Parents Need to Know
About Choo Choo Boogaloo
Parents need to know that this album offers a lively sampling of music in the Creole tradition. Families will learn about this distinctive style, replete with accordion and the Louisiana beat. The colorful narration in between selections provides fascinating introductory/background material for each song. The various instrumental lines are clearly delineated. After the last track, every instrument is heard individually and identified for the listener.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the various instruments that seem to be integral to the Creole style. Also, compare "Skip to My Lou," the original version we are all used to hearing, with "Skip to My Blues," a terrific blues version. Listen for the soulful electric blues guitar and accordion solos.
