DVD Reviews of Jamarama - Live!

DVD Review: Not Great
Summary: 2 Stars

My toddler is not very interested in this. He loves music by the individual bands, but this DVD has the same songs that are on their individual DVDs, so not worth the money.

DVD Review: Jamarama Rocks!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this for my daughter when she was about 10 months old. She always saw the previews for it on Cartoon Network and would stop dead in her tracks when she heard it come on and just dance. She is now 15 months old and when she gets fussy or is tired and needs a "time out" from playing I pop this in and she is mesmerized. She loves all the songs and dances along with all the bands... If your little one loves music this is the perfect DVD!!

DVD Review: We love Laurie but..
Summary: 1 Stars

We bought this CD because we love The Laurie Berkner band but I was VERY disappointed. My 3 year old who loves the We Are The Laurie Berkner Band was very excited when we ordered this CD. We were both VERY disappointed! I allow her to watch the 2 DVD's only when I am walking on the tredmill in the same room as the TV (only time she watches any TV) but I have to say that I can not stand this DVD. My 3 year old is glued to We are the Laurie Berkner Band but as soon as this CD came on she was up off the couch and ready for me to be finished. We now skip right to Laurie and watch her 2 songs and then turn it off. I have to say, if I was Laurie Berkner I would nopt allow whoever did this video to use the name to promote such a piece of crap!

DVD Review: Good for kids, bad for the parents
Summary: 2 Stars

When I first watched this DVD, I couldn't believe that they actually went ahead with selling it after hearing the poor sound quality from the live recording. Laurie Berkner is the only one who sings in tune, so it is very difficult for the adults to get through it. However, I have to give it a few stars since it is the only DVD that I play where my son will sit through the entire thing, even if I leave the room!

DVD Review: Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars

Thankfully, I read the reviews of this video before buying it. We checked it out from the library instead. At least it was free. The sound and picture quality is awful, and Laurie Berkner really needed top billing over the other two groups who are not even close to her in talent.

Description of Jamarama - Live!

If you're old enough to WALK, you're old enough to ROCK!

Join the Laurie Berkner Group, The Ohmies and Milkshake for an aftenoon of singing, dancing, activities and fun. live and in your living room, it's JAMARAMA!This first volume of Jamarama Live! features The Laurie Berkner Band, singer and guitarist Laurie Berkner, bassist (and husband) Brian Mueller, and keyboardist Susie Lampert, who have performed in sold-out concerts, complete with kiddie mosh pits, across the country. Child magazine recently hailed Laurie as "one of the biggest names in alternative children's music-the kind of kids' singer whose songs parents sheepishly play even when their children aren't around." Other critical raves include Time magazine ("a kind of sippy-cup Sheryl Crow. melodies that bear repeated - very repeated - listenings"); Entertainment Weekly ("Laurie Berkner's 'Victor Vito' video rocks hard. Minivan hard"); the Today Show ("Pretty much the hottest thing in children's music") and Good Morning America ("If you think the Beatles made a splash in '63, wait 'till you see the mayhem caused by this woman.") Laurie has a special talent for connecting with children on their own level (even if it means singing while lying down on the floor), and engaging adults who might normally rather be at a rock concert than a kid's concert.

What kind of children's musicians list influences ranging from Rodgers and Hammerstein to The White Stripes? Milkshake! Headed by vocalist Lisa Mathews and acoustic guitar player Mikel Gehl, the band evolved from its beginnings in the '80s as the new wave band Beyond Words, through the melodic adult rock of the popular Baltimore-based group Love Riot in the '90s, to the natural evolution, after becoming parents, of making great rock music for kids. Said Parenting magazine, "Think of what would happen if the B-52s and Cowboy Junkies visited your child's preschool, and you'll get an idea of the dreamy music this rocking duet makes. luscious harmonies and witty, merry-go-round spins. If kids don't beg to hit the replay button, parents will." Milkshake's videos also appear on NOGGIN's "Jack's Big Music Show."

The Ohmies! is an interactive theatrical production that encourages children to center their minds and strengthen their bodies through world music and yoga. Each character represents a basic yoga pose, such as the butterfly or downward facing dog. An open musical jam includes audience participation in singing, stomping, clapping and creating a new original song. The musical score, performed by the Ohmland Bug Band, is comprised of original music in world styles from African percussion to traditional American music with an East-Indian flair. The production has received critical acclaim from media outlets ranging from the Los Angeles Times to Yoga Journal. The Ohmies! enjoyed an off-Broadway, sold-out run at New York's Bleecker Theatre, and another sold-out run at L.A.'s Geffen Playhouse.
