Reviewers Rock to Jersey Babys!

September 20th, 2008

Jersey Babys is getting high praise from reviewers!

From Celebrity Society:
Jersey Babys Celebrity Society Review

From AllMusic.com: Rhino Records, in a move that some might feel harkens back to the company’s roots as a purveyor of peculiar music and novelty acts, presents Jersey Babys, an extension of the award-winning musical Jersey Boys — The Story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. One dozen tunes originally immortalized by that unparalleled group are played on an electronic keyboard configured to sound like some sort of hybrid combination music box, glockenspiel, and toy piano…There are at least four distinct ways to enjoy this album. First and foremost, it was designed and intended to soothe infants and toddlers in need of delicate and reassuring entertainment. Read Arwulf Arwulf’s full review on AllMusic.com.

  1. Nice review, Danielle. So happy the press is recognizing the quality of “Jersey Babys.”

    Re the reviewer’s: “Others with a twisted sense of humor will no doubt regard this as a decidedly fractured manifestation of surrealistic import, as familiar hits like “Who Loves You,” “Rag Doll,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” and a medley of “Sherry” and “Walk Like a Man” are transformed into jingly tinkling cotton candy episodes that fairly beg to be incorporated into artfully deranged remixes.” Could someone provide an English translation of this for me? Ted? Stubbleyou? David?

    As the public is exposed more and more to “Babys”, I think a lot more great press will come. Congrats, Danielle!

  3. Thanks for the e-mail Danielle regarding the review in the society pages! It’s great to see the Jersey Babys project receiving so much coverage!

    Also, that day ended up with me buying up a whopping 8 copies from Best Buy after numerous co-workers wanted something “classy” and “entertaining” for their children and toddlers to enjoy. They told me it was a godsend when driving their kids to childcare when listening to Jersey Babys…..

    My recommendation worked after I “demoed” the copy you gave me at my workstation….. Now, they all want to go see Jersey Boys in Las Vegas….. Thanks!
