Music reviews of Elephants In My Ears

Music Review: This CD is for everyone!
Rating: 5 Stars

If you think Elephants in my Ears is just for kids, think again! The music and lyrics on this CD are just great. Lots of fun jazzy songs that really keep your toes tapping. One of my favorites is In My Own Little Tree House, just reminds me so much of great childhood memories. For anyone that knows children, or is still a child at heart this music is for you. The messages contained in the songs are beneficial to one and all. I will be purchasing several for my friends and their children. I will be looking forward to more great music from Ava and the Mystic Mangos!!!

Description of Elephants In My Ears

Ava and The Mystic Mangos is an ensemble of five accomplished musicians and special guests whose collective experience makes Elephants In My Ears a stellar CD for young people of all ages. With a 20 page eye-popping lyric booklet, Elephants is a funky eclectic souffl? of well-seasoned sounds--pop, rock, reggae, polka, funk, jungle-bop, you name it with enough zing to make Great Grandma jump up and do the Pachyderm Twist. Ava and The Mystic Mangos: Ava Scofield, accomplished versatile singer/songwriter has packed Elephants In My Ears full with twelve sweet, silly swingin songs delightful to the ears of children and adults alike. Included is a 20 page full-color lyric booklet brimming with eye-popping paintings and illustrations by artist Brian Clarke. All the musicians on Elephants In My Ears are magnificently mangolicious --each one filled with a sweet wealth of experience. Scofield has been composing music and performing since the age of 5. She s versed in a number of styles of music and has been a featured soloist in countless productions and at events. Career highlights include performing with former Metropolitan Opera singer Jerome Hines and learning jazz-singing technique from Bobby McFerrin and the great now-deceased Carl Anderson. She s been teaching music to children and adults for 18 years. Pianist John R. Burr, along with being a Mango, performs with the Grammy-winning Alison Brown Quartet. Bass player Bill Lanphier recorded on Joanie Bartels Silly Time and Bath Time and also toured with Madonna on her Like a Virgin tour. Sax-player Tom Politzer, guest-artist, is with Tower Of Power. Guest artist Jeremy Cohen is a Grammy nominee virtuoso violinist. Drummer Bili Turner is a wonderful blues drummer who has played with Albert King, Chuck Berry, Junior Wells and other great artists. Nimble-fingered Guitarist Mark Holzinger also performs with the country-western swing band Lost Weekend. Acoustic bass-player Ruth Davies played regularly with the late Charles Brown and many other talented musicians. Michaelle Goerlitz added her skilled conga playing and percussion to a number of Elephants In My Ears songs. Flute-player Nika Rejto also added her wonderful skilled sound to this CD! And of course, there are the Mangoettes, the splendid herd of children who joined Ava and added their vocal prowess and whimsy to four of the songs on this delightful CD. Listener Reviews: My cockatiel sings whenever she hears your singing and the cats just jam! Santi Lovely stuff. Bless. Mellow Baku Wow...I love the happiness that I feel when I listen to your music. Elli I love your music and the killer band you've assembled to play it! Rick Gordon I feel refreshed now after listening to Owee! Somehow it puts life in perspective.

This CD is really fun for all ages. It's musical, creative and unique. Ava has a great voice and it's great to hear the kids, too. Nancy Love, Love, Love it!
