COMPILATION

Shakin' a Tailfeather is a melange of early rock and pop hits, like "Rockin' Robin" and traditional songs like "Shortnin' Bread." The entire disc suffers from an overabundance of sincerity. There's just a bit too much trying to get across a message, and too little just having fun. That's a serious problem for a disc aimed at kids. ~ Ross Boissoneau
