Daddy A Go Go Giveaway

Children's musician Daddy A Go Go released one of the most memorable CDs of 2008 with Rock of All Ages (read my review). He's kicking off 2009 in style with a career spanning "best of" compilation, drawing favorite songs from the six amazing kids albums he's produced over the past ten years.

Come On, Get Happy - The Best Of Daddy A Go Go features 15 toe-tapping tracks that are sure to bring a smile to your child's face. John Boydston is the man behind these tunes, and what I like about him is that he's a natural rocker who keeps his songs centered on the kids and what makes them tick. He's very clearly playing for the kids, with the occasional wink to the parents, rather than the other way around.

John covers a couple of familiar songs, like the themes to The Partridge Family, Scooby Doo, and The Courtship of Eddie's Father, but it's the original numbers that really shine on this compilation. My kids especially like "I Caught My Daddy Watching Cartoons." The Daddy A Go Go sense of humor gets a big thumbs-up in our house.

This sampler is a great way to introduce yourself, and your children, to the music of Daddy A Go Go. If you're not convinced yet, go to the Daddy A Go Go website where you can have a free listen to all of his CDs and maybe make a purchase or two.

I have a copy of Come On, Get Happy to give away to one of my readers, so if you and your kids would enjoy a bit of old-fashioned rock 'n roll to liven things up at your place, then leave a comment here. I'll pick a winner at the end of the week.
