Keep American Hi-5 Alive!.......2007-07-18
Discovery Communications, the company behind Discovery Kids and The Learning Channel, is prepared to stop producing any new "Hi-5" TV episodes. Instead, it seems that Discovery will continue to re-run the same episodes of "Hi-5," over and over again, for now and the foreseeable future. Hi-5 fans have been watching these same shows for up to 4 years, when the first "Hi-5" episodes debuted on American TV in 2003, and, frankly... we're tired of it!
It is urgent that we let Discovery and Kids Like Us (KLU), Hi-5's producers, know that we do NOT support their decision to stop producing new "Hi-5" episodes. Time is of the essence because if no new episodes are produced soon, there will be no reason for Discovery to keep our talented cast, Curtis, Jenn, Kimee, and newest members Sydney and Yasmeen. That's right -- there will be no more Hi-5 for TV, tours, appearances, charitable work, or anything else!
Information We Need to Emphasize to Discovery and KLU
*Hi-5 merchandise is currently one of the "Top 10 Brands" at Ty's Toy Box, a key internet retailer;
*The current "Hi-5 Live" tour has been filling up arenas across Canada and the U.S.;
*The $100 VIP packages for the tour have been completely selling out; and
*Hi-5 fans across Latin America are now eagerly requesting that Hi-5 will come to tour in their countries, too.
Hi-5 fans must let Discovery recognize that they will lose this entire revenue stream, as well as our support, patience, and goodwill, if they do not make new episodes to be televised within the next year.
We also need to let Discovery realize that the current 70 episodes, which are shown on 3-month cycles on TV, aren't enough to satisfy Hi-5's unique audience. Hi-5 fans include children, parents, teens, and young adults -- how many other TV shows can deliver that kind of fanbase? Hi-5 is a unique product and does not fit into the mold of a typical children's TV show, and we need to let Discovery know that before it's too late!
Just for your kids.......2007-07-12
It was incredible to see my 2 year-old son jumping and singing with the music of this television band. He remembers the moves and part of the lyrics so every time I play this CD I can see a great smile in his face.
I really recommend this CD for your kids. You won't regret it.
Excellent CD!.......2007-07-06
My [...] daughter's favorite show is Hi-5, so I thought I would get this CD for when she's in my car. It's the best money I've ever spent on a CD! After I strap her in her car seat, I'll get in the front seat and she immediately says "uh-Hi" (her version of Hi-5). It's so cute that the other day I brought the video camera in the car to record her saying it and the booming smile that comes on her face when the 1st song (the Hi-5 theme) starts. I also recorded her when the song "Robot #1" starts, as she always says "robot". Since I enjoy the music as well, it's a win-win situation! After, the Hi-5 theme, there are 9 "song of the week" selections followed by several songlets from some of their skits. It's been such a big hit that I'm online today ordering a copy for my wife's car!
Excelente trabajo!!.......2007-07-04
Muy buena musica y calidad vocal... fue una muy buena compra y para mi bebe el mejor regalo
Lo recomiendo de todas maneras!!

Customer Reviews:
The best of the era.......2007-07-09
The bset cuts from, arguably, the best years of the Stones. If you are Stones fan you probably have most of these on other albums, however now they are all together for you, just pop in the cd and you've got eighteen of their best. A shame, however some longer versions of the songs aren't here, like Waiting on a friend...the long version has some incredible sax solos by Billy Keys. The one downfall of strictly studio cut albums.
Forget the iPod, just play the entire CD!
How come they sound so good? Cuz its the STONES, that's why!.......2007-01-08
JUMP BACK * THE BEST OF THE ROLLING STONES has tracks that span the years 1971 to 1989. Taken direct from masters, and using what was then the latest technology (20 bit), sound quality of these 18 tunes is excellent. Included is a nicely illustrated 12-page booklet, that has comments about each song by band members-- the sort of details fans and trivia buffs go for. Some examples: "Brown Sugar" was written by Mick while he was filming NED KELLY in Australia, the demo of "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll (But I Like It)" featured Jagger and David Bowie, "Undercover Of The Night" was inspired by a William Borroughs novel called CITIES OF THE RED NIGHT, and so on.
JUMP BACK is a solid collection of later-career Rolling Stones tracks, recorded while they were still at the top of their game.
TOTAL RUNNING TIME -- 74:19
Great Stones Collection.......2006-07-07
If you want to listen to the best Mick Jagger & company had to offer from the early 70s to the early 90s then this is the CD for you.
Not all the big numbers are here but there are enough to make this a "must have" Stones album, especially for those who don't want to buy all the individual albums these tunes came from.
The digital remastering sounds great and there is a good liner notes booklet too.
not the best choice of songs.......2006-05-20
This should have included SHATTERED, SHE'S SO COLD, and ONE HIT TO THE BODY, if it was a true greatest hits cd from this time period.
Mixed Emotional CD.......2006-03-11
I have Mixed Emotions about this CD compilation. Most of the Stones best songs are here during that era, although I would have liked to have seen "Can't You Hear Me Knocking?", "Monkey Man", "Shattered", "She's So Cold", or "Dance Little Sister" on it. But the biggest letdown in this CD was the editted version of the Monster Hit: "Miss You" by one minute and sixteen seconds. (the singles version) Also, "Beast of Burden","Hot Stuff", and "Fool to Cry" were each cut by almost a full minute! "Rock and A Hard Place" was also editted too. (You can hear the eight minute dance version of 'Miss You' on the "Rarities '71 to '03" CD, but that was more amusing than fantastic listening.) Overall the 'Jump Back' CD is good, but You Can't Always Get What You Want. If you did, you got me Rocking!

If, to your way of the thinking, a Brooklyn double-dutch tournament has about as much business inhabiting the wonderful world of Disney as a fairy-princess documentary does the ESPN Zone, you've got a lot of catching up to do. With High School Musical and now Jump In!, the Disney Channel is doing for tweens what John Travolta and Olivia Newton John did a generation ago with Grease: rallying them behind an exceptionally digestible drama, and upping the appeal by patching in songs with more sticking power than a five-pack of Hubba Bubba. Musically, Jump In! picks up where "Get'cha Head in the Game," from High School Musical, leaves off--these are bouncy dance and hip-hop tracks that'll find you nodding, shoulder-shimmying or knee-bobbing in your seat no matter your age. Stars Keke Palmer and Corbin Bleu turn in a couple of keepers (Bleu's "Push It to the Limit" particularly), but the best songs here belong to the pros: Jordan Pruitt shows shades of Nelly Furtado and other pop giants on "Jump to the Rhythm," and Lil' Josh, on his adaptation of the old-school classic "Jump," is just plain irresistible. --Tammy La Gorce

Great gift.......2007-05-12
I bought this for my grandson age nine and my four year old granddaughter loves it too! Good, wholesome music!
Jumping In the Teenage Music Universe!.......2007-04-13
I love the movie "Jump In!" because it teaches us the value of either being on the ring or do some serious double-dutching. Corbin Bleu & Keke Palmer have got it going on. Here are some of the tracks that I think of in this soundtrack.
1. It's On: NLT 7/15- I like the song in the beginng on the film, because to me, it's really catchy.
2. It's My Turn Now: Keke Palmer 15/15- AWESOME SONG! She went from "Akeelah & The Bee" to double-dutching queen. If you like Keke Palmer, you should love this song.
3. Push It To The Limit: Corbin Bleu- 15/15- Amazing song! Corbin came from "High School Musical" singer in the backgrounds to singing abilities. This song will push every teenager's song into the limit. Love it, even if it's on Radio Disney.
4.Vertical: T-Squad- 15/15- Great Song. Love the performance. Take Kid Karizz, Miki, Boo Boo & Jade and you've got the T-Squad! Hopefully, this song will go vertical on all the other song. They put the "Yo" in the "Yo Factor" for future singing careers.
5.Where Do I Go From Here- Sebastian Mego- 12/15- It's okay. Haven't heard the song yet, but I hope it's extremely good.
6. Jump To The Rhythm- Jordan Pruitt- 15/15- LOVE THIS SONG!! The song is extremely catchy. Has a mix of pop, dance, R&B and hip-hop in a cool way.
7. Jumpin!- Keke Palmer: 15/15- KEKE DOES IT AGAIN!! She's singing another song from the follow-up "It's My Turn Now" I saw the music video on Disney Channel and it rocks. Hoping that it will be on Radio Disney somehow. Keep it up, Palmer!
8. Go!- Jupiter Rising- 12/15- Haven't heard the song, but I hear it's pretty good and a catchy song.
9. I'm Ready- Drew Seeley- 13/15- Haven't heard the song before, but I would hope it's a pretty good song.
10. Gotta Lotta- Prima J- 14/15- I'm thinking it's a good song for the movie, though it might be in the Double-Dutching scenes.
11. Live It Up- Jeannie Ortega- 14/15- It's a good song for the Double-Dutching scenes and everyone will love this song.
12. Jump- Lil' Josh- 15/15- This song puts the WOW in the WOW Factor! Love this song. Hip-hop at early age. So cool. I heard it on Radio Disney and it's a cool song, even if it's made for Hip-Hop for little rappers.
13. Let It Go- Kyle- 11/15- Not the best song I heard, but it should be okay, even if it's really cool.
If you love Jump In!, you gotta buy the Soundtrack and the DVD. It's awesome!
It's OK.......2007-04-04
The kids (4 and 9) really wanted this based on a couple of tracks they'd heard, but as it turned out they only liked those two tracks. Better to download just the songs you like.
My daughter gives it a five!!.......2007-03-18
A must have for any 7 - 14 year old! If they love High School Musical, they will love this!
Kids love it!.......2007-03-11
My 4 year old daughter just loves this CD and I must say, the songs are really good for this teenage group. The songs are inspirational to kids and I am so happy they have positive lyrics. Great purchase!

Band leader and lounge kingpin Louis Prima will be best be known for the classic, "Just a Gigolo," immortalized by David Lee Roth for a whole new generation of swingers. But Prima's output went much further: in his day he recorded for Capitol, acted in a movie or two, even owned a golf course. Prima's genius is infectious: lounge, swing, and Dixieland all fuse together into medleys that are fun, dance-worthy, and upbeat. Prima's duets with Keely Smith are the obvious highlights here: "That Ol' Black Magic," "Hey Boy! Hey Girl!," and "I've Got You Under My Skin" are essential Prima tracks. Sure, the cheese factor occasionally runs high, but it is a fun trip. --Jason Verlinde
Customer Reviews:
Good Prima.......2007-07-04
This is a good collection of the best hits of the unique Louis Prima with his very special Italian-jazzy style.
The joy of life!.......2007-05-31
This disk rocks, and is packed with great, upbeat music. It brims with humor and spirit. Even though it runs for well over an hour, I feel let down when it's over.
Unlike many of the people who have posted here before me, I have no particular interest in the swing revival, and I did not come across Louis Prima via Brian Setzer. Brian Setzer is, however, as good a link to Louis Prima as any. Prima was a mysterious figure who played heavily in the otherwise fictional 50's period Italian food film "Big Night" (1996). Intrigued, I bought this disk after seeing "Big Night" in the theatre.
The song "Beep Beep" is dated and corny, but it differs from the rest of the disk only in its space-age subject matter and "otherworldly" slide-guitar sound effects. It was topical during the late-50's space race. Everything else holds up perfectly well over 40-plus years.
Prima's band is tight, yet spontaneous and not sterile. He has a great onstage comic rapport with cohort Sam Butera, and also with his then-wife and straight-woman Keely Smith.
An example from "Embraceable You" --
Keely (singing): "Why don't you come and get your baby-do..."
Louis (aside to the audience): "Call from 'The Point'."
This disk is a must for any non-classical music lover with a pulse. This is in my top 5 CD's, out of perhaps 400 I own, and is certainly a "desert island disk." Deservedly, almost everyone on this page has given it 5 stars. It doesn't get any better than this, kids. (Adapted from my review of 10/27/1999.)
How could you not?.......2007-05-28
This is classic and cool. Reminds me of the jungle book! Highly recommended
Prima's Primo.......2007-03-10
A Baby Boomer like myself might have first thought that Louis Prima was too square. But I thought I would try his music and I liked it! I was aware of his catalog by current artists who had covered him (Van Morrison, Brian Setzer). I found the songs to be an entertaining,"retro" experience. I enjoyed the different vocal styles with Prima's Louie Armstrong-type voice and Keely Smith's crystal clear vocalizing. I loved the sophisticated, syncopated big band instrumental sound. And at a bargain price. I definitely recommend it!
Louis at his best.......2007-02-21
Amazing CD- excellent arrangements performed by a master musician and showman- his songs still work today - most recently in a GAP TV commercial.
Especially like Just a Gigolo and That Old Black Magic which are classics.

At a moment when mainstream music is clogged with a surfeit of stale, formulaic songs and huge egos, Dan Zanes has found the Drano. Family Dance, his second kids' record (after the fab Rocket Ship Beach), again comes through with big-name helpers--Sandra Bernhard, Rosanne Cash, and Loudon Wainwright III among them--but instead of assembling a mixed bag of self-important numbers, Zanes, who produced and plays on all but one of 15 tracks, maintains a cohesive vibe that's low-key and playful. Yet here's a disc that's all over the map, genre-wise. Gruffster Rankin' Don, a.k.a. Father Goose, rasta-raps his way through "The Hokey Pokey" and "Skip to My Lou," the Sandy Girls carry us off to a colorful Caribbean village for "Linstead Market," Cash folks up "Fooba Wooba John," and Leadbelly's "Rock Island Line" makes a stop in Memphis bluesland. Zanes's originals--"Jump Up," "Wonder Wheel," and "Thrift Shop," performed as a duet with Bernhard--manage to be wholesome, happy, and hip all at once, no mean feat. But it's the music making on Family Dance that impresses most of all. Fiddles, beatboxes, mandolins, tubas, banjos, and concertina elbow their way onto these tracks, and they're balanced by Zanes's arrangements and backup singer Barbara Brousal's graceful voice and guitar work. Kids 2 and up will be likewise captivated by the chunky board-book packaging, again with original artwork. --Tammy La Gorce
Album Description
this is the follow up to the acclaimed "rocket ship beach" cd. it's the hip handmade sound of dan zanes and his friends bringing acoustic and electric guitars, fiddles, drums, harmonicas, mandolins, accordions, banjos, tamborines, and voices together for a mixture of traditional and original songs that can be danced to or just listened to depending on the occation. this is 21st century folk music made with the whole family in mind. special guests include Rosanne Cash, Loudon Wainwright lll, The Sandy Girls, Barbara Brousal, Sandra Bernhard, Rankin' Don aka Father Goose, and the Rubi Theatre Company.

Two weeks..........2007-06-12
It took us two weeks to find out what our daughter was happily going around the house singing (3 at the time). And finally Sesame Street came on, and she said her song was on. It was 'Mailti' by Dan Zanes, and once that was
on my daughter just danced and sang away.
Since then we have embraced Dan's music into our family music circle. The lyrics are clean and catchy, and the rythm is simple enough for even a child to keep up with.

My son loves the music, but the singing by "Father Goose" is unbearably nasal and off-pitch on "Holey Pokey" and "Skip to My Lou".
Those two tracks make me cringe and I skip them every time my son plays the CD. However, several songs are wonderfully musical. For example, Linstead Market is just delightful.
Let yourself go..........2007-04-14
T. Bittner from Peroria should read her review again.
"My kids seem to like it (the ones I don't hit the skip button for) but I am not going to sacrifice myself when there are plenty of other recordings that they and I both like."
If you don't want to 'sacrifice' once in a while and let your kids grow and find what they like, leave the room. A little fun and free expression is what childhood is all about! Sometimes it is about what they like. This is how they find out who THEY are.
Overall, my son likes the music. It is especially fun to waltz with him in my arms to 'Streets of New York'. Thanks to Dan Zanes, my son can find out it is fun to mix the old with the new.
hard for Mom to tolerate.......2007-02-19
I love folk music, but this CD contains only 2 songs that I like and only 2 others that I can even tolerate. My kids seem to like it (the ones I don't hit the skip button for) but I am not going to sacrifice myself when there are plenty of other recordings that they and I both like.
Why don't I like it? Zanes has a croak similar to Bob Dylan's; with all due respect to Dylan's great songwriting, I don't enjoy his singing. Zane's friends vary in talent but none of them seem able to harmonize together. The songs in a minor key are particularly grating, such as "All Around the Kitchen" which many people seem to like, though I can't see why. The instrumentation is nothing special either. Don't buy this just because you like the song "Jump Up" from Sesame Street; you should listen before you buy to make sure the rest of it matches your taste.
House Party and Family Dance.......2007-02-18
If you are looking for something different from the typical childrens music, this is it. My family has been addicted to Laurie Berkner since the summer and we needed something different. We are enjoying Dan Zanes so much. We find ourselves singing and dancing along in our kitchen and our van. This afternoon we were listening to Waltzing Matilda and my 4 year old daughter stopped playing and announced that her grandpa would love to dance to this song! We also love all the spanish that is mixed into the music. We like to try and guess what they are singing about. I am so glad we have added them to our collection.

Substitute grits for glitz, soul for sheen, and wry humor for mythic self-regard, and the Amazing Rhythm Aces could have been the Eagles. Though they didn't fly as high commercially, the Aces' blend of rock, country, down-home rhythm & blues, and even gospel continues to satisfy on this combo reissue of the band's first two mid-'70s albums. "Third Rate Romance" remains the Memphis band's signature song and major pop hit, while "The End Is Not in Sight (The Cowboy Tune)" anticipated the changes in commercial country a couple of decades down the road. Rhythm aside, the key to the band's appeal is frontman Russell Smith, whose songs and singing transcend musical boundaries with amazing grace. --Don McLeese

The amazing Rythm Aces: Stacked Deck.......2007-02-19
More than a 1 Cut Wonder, some surprising stuff here and worth the price.
Stacked Deck/Too Stuffed to Jump.......2007-02-06
Too Stuffed maybe this group's best effort. And what an album it is!
BUY THIS ALBUM!!!!.......2007-01-30
Forget buying Hotel California. Set afire your copy of On The Border. Send Marshall Tucker to the back of the play list. THIS is country rock at it's finest.
Better than I remember!.......2007-01-09
This cd is timeless! Each song is just as good today as it was when first recorded. I plan to order the rest of their music right away!

The back of this two-CD set may say "File under Lounge," but frankly, lounging will be the very last thing on your mind once you put Louis and Keely on. It's simply impossible to stand still while the duo, backed by Sam Butera and the Witnesses, gets going. When Keely sings "Hey boy, I can really cook," there's a tiny chance she's talking about something that takes place in the kitchen, but the galloping bass line behind her says that she really belongs to the dance floor. Whoo-hee! Cole Porter's "Just One of Those Things" is taken at a frenetic pace--do these people ever pause to breathe? The bulk of this collection was recorded between 1957 and 1962, and it makes for an explosive document of a now-gone era when men in sharp suits hung out at the Copa, babes with pointy rocket-launcher breasts at their arms. The sheer effortlessness of it all is still supremely exciting. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
Customer Reviews:
fun swing.......2005-02-12
i just started to appreciate louis prima's band-this remastered double cd offers an excellent listening experience.
Jump, Jive, An' Wail!.......2004-06-17
Songs from Louis Prima and Keely Smith with Sam Butera and the Witnesses. Songs are great. Compilation includes songs from "The Wildest", "The Call of the Wildest" and "The Wildest Show at Tahoe".
Fast, funny, and worth every penny!.......2002-09-09
I was skeptical about buying a compilation CD set for fear it wouldn't be good... but I was wrong! I can't get enough of these CD's. I do Swing dance and Lindy Hop, and I think some of the tempos to these songs are a bit fast for dancing, but excellent for listening to when you just want to be in a good mood! Keely has a great voice, and Louis is just plane hysterical :D
A trip to the Moon on nuclear wings!.......2001-12-08
What a blast!
This was my first introduction to Mr. Prima & Co. What a swingin' treat!
You can tell from each and every cut on this twin CD set that these guys were having fun. Many of the songs have little ad-libs between Louis, Keely Smith, Sam Butera, and the other band members. Louis jumps in between solos to throw out comments, he'll scat, even proto-rap, and is having such a good time he'll try to keep from laughing while he and Sam duel with brass. Only true professional musicians can get away with that sort of thing and make it sound good. Louis & Co. are top-notch pros.
Keely solos on a few cuts to round things out, and basically, you get the feeling of what it must have been like to be kickin' it in Vegas back in the swank era while taking in Louis Prima's act. Maybe tomorrow night, you'll catch Dino at the Sands, and take in Torme on Tuesday. Or, maybe you'll just keep coming back here to see Louis, Keely, Sam, and the Witnesses again and again.
Many of the songs are just plain fun ("Robin Hood/Oh Babe", "Banana Split For My Baby", "Felicia No Capicia", "Greenback Dollar Bill", "There'll Be No Next Time"), and even the old standards take on a wink and a smile when Louis gets ahold of them ("The Music Goes 'Round And Around", "That Old Black Magic", "Just One of Those Things", "Embraceable You")!
Get yourself a martini, sit back and relax, and get ready to be swung back to swanksville. This set is one swingin' good time, whether you're six or sixty!
Fun with the swing masters.......2000-11-09
Louis Prima and Keely Smith with Sam Butera and the Witnesses constitute probably the single greatest influence on today's swing scene. I am not exaggerating. And this double-CD is a great place to start: Over two hours of remastered music, a great production design (neo-retro), and long liner notes. My only problem with the presentation is that the individual musician credits are left out. A must for all swing dancers and jazz musicians! ///// KOBY.

Customer Reviews:
Memories.......2007-07-22
The songs that were a part of the CD were well chosen, and they
fairly represented that era. My husband and I fully enjoyed this CD
Track titles mixed-up.......2007-06-13
This isn't really a review of the songs (I like them.) I just wanted to say that when I put my CD in my PC and opened the player the track titles did not match the songs. They were all mixed-up. For example, when I double-clicked on "Lil Marlene" I got "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe'. Very strange. I have no idea how this happened. The songs all sound great, though. It's just odd that the titles didn't match the actual songs.
Revies WW@ Vol 2.......2007-03-18
I am in mt mid-sixties (1941). I enjoyed Volume 2 better than the original CD. Both were good and if you are from my generation, you should enjoy either one.
great 40's compilation........2007-03-18
i was born in 1961, but like the geeky audiophile that i am, i have eagerly dug into all the decades that have produced recorded music. i always thought that the forties were one of the weaker decades out there when it comes to sonic delights. so why do i love the two volumes of "songs that got us through wwii" so much? rhino records has a lot to do with it. as all audiophiles of the cd age now, rhino is one of the best outfits around when it comes to compilations of music. on these 2 wonderful discs from the forties, they have done it again. pure pleasure is to be had here. one drifts back to another time, across decades, to experience the popular songs of another american culture. this is a perfect introduction to that decade for anyone. having heard these two volumes, i can't wait to give the forties another chance. i am being won over, i think. thanks rhino.
Great Nostalgia.......2007-01-04
I purchased this CD collection for my residents in a dementia/Alzheimers care unit. They enjoy singing along with the songs from their youth, and some can even name the band/artist performing. The CD is a fun collection of lively and sentimental popular hits from the 40s. It would make a great gift for a person who grew up during this era.
