Editorial Reviews :
Ralph Covert may have sunk to the bottom of the sea for his second release, but he swished the sophomore slump aside in his wake. Here's a world as unwatered-down as its predecessor, Ralph's World, complete with psychic cats, caffeine-addicted parents, and heapin' helpings of b-b-bean soup and rice instead. In other words, the impossibly clever songwriting is back, and so is the catchy vibe and effortless-sounding folky delivery, something that extends to the cover tunes. Nobody, not even kids too young to be cartoon connoisseurs, tires of tra-la-laaing along with the Banana Splits theme, and why hasn't anybody thought to capture Sinatra's swingin' yet suitable 'Fly Me to the Moon' for kids before? As on the first record, the closing tune simultaneously conks you over the head with sentimentality and suffuses you with a sense of connectedness. Somewhere, clans of fulfilled yet fantastically kooky families thrive, and if they had to choose a champion, it'd be Ralph Covert.
Buyer Reviews :
What a wonderful CD for children and adults. Well-crafted songs with clever lyrics and talented musicianship make for a 50-minute delight. 'At the Bottom of the Sea' has clever word-play, 'Surfin' in My Imagination' has some fine surf guitar and inspires some uninhibited dancing, and a great rendition of 'Fly Me to the Moon' should have you singing in no time with your child. Each song is worth hearing over and over (and over), and this CD is money well spent. My son laughs and laughs at Eighteen Wheels on a Big Rig,' and I am partial to and extremely appreciative of 'The Banana Splits (The Tra La La Song).' After all, four bananas make a bunch and so do many more!
I am incredibly impressed with Ralph Covert's abilities to reach a child's imagination without shutting out the adults. I am going to buy this as a gift to all parents I know, and I also plan to purchase Ralph's World's first CD. This CD should be at the top of anyone's Wish List.
