This is part of SONY WONDER`S FAMILY ARTIST series. Tom Chapin is simply one of the most charming performers in the entire children`s music field, and Zag Zig is one of his best. Whether it`s the zesty horn charts and witty lyrics of "Vitamin Si," or "The Backwards Birthday Party," or this album`s installment of the adventures of Bruno, "Bruno`s Christmas On The Mall," it`s a singalong fun-fest. Topping it off is Chapin`s tale of a youngster looking for a way to be a music hero. "Johnny Glockenspiel" is hysterical, danceable, and totally irresistible. ~ Ross Boissoneau
