Product Description
The beloved childrens anthem Baby Beluga joins other fun-filled favorites and memorable Raffi originals in this collection of musical riches for the whole family. Includes printed lyrics.
Amazon.com
Baby Beluga is a fun-filled collection of favorite children's songs and Raffi originals, all performed in the singer's folksy, expressive style. Beluga begins with the sounds of whales communicating in their high-pitch squeaks (which presented here come across as cute and sweet) and features melodic lines that evoke vivid pictures of gentle waves and a frolicking whale. An illustrated sing-along book that is published separately is a nice companion to this first track, giving young listeners visual images of the song's narrative. The rest of this varied album blends traditional songs like "Oats and Beans and Barley" and "This Old Man" with four original pieces by Raffi, including the instrumental "Water Dance." Liner notes have the complete lyrics, a description and history of beluga whales, and explanations of Raffi's inspiration and ties to each song. This is an excellent album with catchy tunes that's sure to become a household favorite. --Tami Horiuchi

Still my children's favorite! April 27, 2000
33 out of 35 found this review helpful
We own several of Raffi's recordings, but this seems to be the one that the children ask for most.It, of course, contains Raffi's famous "Baby Beluga", favorites such as "Day O" and "Kumbaya", and original songs such as "All I Really Need" and "Joshua Giraffe." If you don't own a Raffi tape, I would highly recommend this recording, particularly for long drives in the car or SUV with your children.
Highly Recommended! Pure Fun and Joy! March 24, 2002

Our family loves Raffi's music, and we would love to share his music with you.Raffi's music is pure magic for children! That's why he has been honored with numerous parent and children awards, sold 13 million albums worldwide, over a million books, and millions of concert videos. He's the Mr. Rogers of children's music. His music is good for children (unlike some of the commerical trash out there). And his music is so much fun! "Baby Beluga" was certified Double Platinum in North America (and more worldwide). It's a favorite of ours. Our children never tire of these songs, despite playing them over and over. Your child will love it very much. Some say it's the best children's album of all-time. The song "Baby Beluga" is definitely the best children's song of all time. It's so easy to sing along with, and the words are just great! Share Baby Beluga with your child(ren). Our all-time Raffi favorites are: -"The Singable Songs Collection" (his first 3 masterpiece albums in one value-priced collection). -"A Young Children's Concert With Raffi" (an astonishingly magical concert video). This is the best children's music you can buy.
Absolutely my daughters favorite! April 22, 1999

This is the first Raffi we bought (over a year ago). My 17 month old daughter absolutely loves it!! She dances to all of the songs and know many of the words to "Baby Beluga". (All whales are now named Baby Beluga). She and I both very highly recommend this cd. We also now have many others by Raffi!!
Lots of Fun! July 1, 2005

Generally I don't like to listen to children's music but I make an exception for Raffi. We've had this CD for almost ten years and my son STILL likes to listen to it!
Raffi is the Greatest for Young Children March 26, 2000

As a long-time early childhood educator, I highly recommend Raffi to everyone who cares about introducing *quality* music to their children. Raffi's music is "just right" for little ones and so fun to sing and dance along with. You'll find yourself singing along, too! I've reviewed hundreds of children's CD's, and Raffi's music is much better than almost everything else (commercial).My favorites by Raffi are Singable Songs for the Very Young: Great with a Peanut Butter Sandwich, Raffi in Concert, Singable Songs Collection, and Young Children's Concert with Raffi (video), but all of Raffi's CD's are outstanding. Raffi has been recognized for his lifetime achievements for Children. He's the greatest children's music performer of all time. You should share Raffi with the little ones you love.
