Beethoven's Wig 3 by Richard Perlmutter

Tiger loves this series! We've been listening to the first album (Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Symphonies) since he was about 2 years old. He was already enjoying all sorts of music but this one just lit his fire. (He has a strong silly streak in him.)
This third album was almost as good as the first one for us. Favorite songs include "Manly Man" and "Take Me to Your Leader". Definitely a great collection of songs. (We weren't as happy with Beethoven's Wig 2 and the music choices for some reason.)
I like that after all the silly songs are over just the instrumental music is played. It makes for a nice calm after the storm of words. It's so pleasant to be exposed to classical music in such an easy way.
This third album has a focus on individual instruments. Lots of children's music seems to, now that I think of it. I know at least one of our jazz albums does and of course Ella Jenkins albums do.
Tiger gives this one two thumbs up himself. Panda enjoys it okay but the words are quick and he doesn't always get the joke of the lyrics. Mama (and Papa) laugh often enough to make this one tolerable to even daily playing by our young disk jockey.
