Great Show!!!!
What's the story?
Nickelodeon's fresh-faced, groovy foursome The Fresh Beat Band give their fans a chance to rock out with them on their jam-packed soundtrack, THE FRESH BEAT BAND: MUSIC FROM THE HIT TV SHOW. The 20 tracks feature the most popular hits from the show, including the theme song, "Great Day," "Bananas," "Friends," "Stomp the House," "Here We Go," "Just Like a Rockstar," and "Loco Legs."
Is it any good?
Although 20 songs is lengthy for a preschooler to actually listen to from start to end, don't be surprised if yours sticks around for most of the album. At the very least, kids will want to hear their favorite songs over and over. While the vocals may not be the best (especially sans the original "Marina"), the songs are so upbeat and infectious that it's easy to get caught in the groove and seriously want to make your legs "go loco." Little fans of the show won't be able to get enough of this album, and it's a good way to introduce them to the joys music can bring.
