Music : The Simpsons Sing The Blues
Rating: 
- I love Buster Poindexter!
This is the debut album from the pop cultural phenomenon with, amongst other things, its own star on the Hollywood walk of fame, THE SIMPSONS.
This album features 5 original Simpson's songs & 5 covers of classic blues songs, all sung in the inimitable Simpson's style.
1.DO THE BARTMAN - 5:11.
A number one hit co written by Michael Jackson!
2.SCHOOL DAY - 3:57.
A rockin' cover of Chuck Berry's song, featuring Bart Simpson and Buster Poindexter {David Johansen.}
3.BORN UNDER A BAD SIGN - 3:08.
Dan Castellaneta doing Homer Simpson doing Albert King!
4.MOANIN' LISA BLUES - 4:49.
My favourite line in this BLACK VELVET {Alannah Myles} sounding song is "I'm down so low, if I cheered up I'd still be depressed!"
Sounds different to when it featured in the season 1 episode MOANING LISA, but it's equally as good, if not better!
5.DEEP DEEP TROUBLE - 4:28.
Bart raps about what happened to him "Once upon a time, about a week ago."
6.GOD BLESS THE CHILD - 4:31.
The slowest and most soulful song on the album. It features Lisa Simpson & Bleeding Gums Murphy {Ron Taylor}.
7.I LOVE TO SEE YOU SMILE - 3:07.
A Marge & Homer duet.
8.SPRINGFIELD SOUL STEW - 2:38.
Marge Simpson's version of MEMPHIS SOUL STEW.
Play it loud, & play it proud!
9.LOOK AT ALL THOSE IDIOTS - 3:52.
Harry Shearer talking to himself! {He voices Mr Burns AND Mr Smithers!}
10.SIBLING RIVALRY - 4:40.
A Bart & Lisa duet.
ALBUM DURATION: 40 minutes 23 seconds.
Also, this album features B.B King, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Dr John and Marcy Levy.
This album doesn't come with song words, but the enclosed booklet does contain five small black and white pictures of the Simpson's cast with their aliases.
The perfect soundtrack to accompany a mundane chore; it'll go in a flash!
Utterly fabulous!
Rating: - Fantastic
This album is fantastic - it is a wonderful fusion of two of my favourite things: the Simpsons and the blues.
This is not a rip-off designed to cash in on the fame of the Simpsons. It is a fabulous CD in its own right.
The songs are all sung by members of the Simpsons family - the lyrics are original and appropriate to the character. The music is mostly blues classics (with some original material) performed by fantastic (and famous) blues musicians. I could have done without Bart rapping but this is not a major complaint - Lisa singing the Moanin' Lisa Blues more than compensated.
It brought a smile to my face and joy to my heart.
Rating: - Something for everyone
This is definately a fantastic album. The tracks on it range from Bart and Jazzy Jeff rapping, to Homer and Marge Singing a catchy 1940's tune. It is really well worth owning and at the price, a steal.
A must have for any Simpsons fan.

- FUNKY FAMILY
Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie pour their hearts out about their garishly-coloured lives in a mixture of classic covers and songs written especially for them. Bart delivers the dance-raps of Do The Bartman and Deep Deep Trouble and also duets with Buster Pointdexter on Chuck Berry's School Days with Joe Walsh's guitar solos. Homer, full of woe and trouble, croons the classic blues Born Under A Bad Sign and Marge covers Springfield Soul Stew to the melody of Memphis Soul Stew. Together the two of them sing the romantic duet I Love To See You Smile with Dr John on piano and Roger McGuin on banjo. Blueshound Lisa shines on the Billie Holiday standard God Bless The Child and the original Moanin' Lisa Blues. This family is hot!
Rating: - How can you grow tired of this?
If you like the TV show, buy the videos and worship the never-grow-old nature of the characters, thenthsi is the album for you. In my collection of Limp Bizkit, RATM, Metallica & Deftones, it seems a TADGE out of place, but it has me in creases every time - Homer's choices of jazz names for himself will NEVER not be funny!
