For kids who love to sing and are a little bit bonkers! Aimed at 4-10 year olds. It’s silly, slimy and spooky…but great for grown-ups too! Catchy, folky and up-beat with great production and loads of style.

Al says, “I’ve been writing children’s songs and playing them in schools for six years and it’s the most fun I’ve ever had! These songs are the children’s favourites, and believe me, they tell it to me straight! I wanted to write songs with as much authenticity and effort as every other adult song I’ve ever written. So here is a children’s album with full production (no plonky keyboards); loads of vocals and harmonies (no whiney simpering) and proper funny stories.

“It’s you adults who buy the children their music, so the songs have to cut it with the grown-ups too! We parents know that there are few children’s albums that we enjoy listening to ourselves….The gauntlet was thrown down!”

We have included three bonus backing tracks so your child can be the lead singer! Our beautiful new packaging makes this CD an ideal gift. Full colour six panel cardboard digipak with illustrations by Chloe Batchelor. Shrink wrapped.

Track listing: 1. The Creepy Castle 2. Bright Idea 3. Five Pound Note 4. King of the Jungle 5. Turn Over a Stone 6. Tizzy Song 7. Let’s Harvest! 8. The Dinosaur Dance 9. Little Green Men from Outer Space

Bonus Tracks The Creepy Castle (backing track) Dinosaur Dance (backing track) Little Green Men (backing track)

Volume 2 is full of even more great songs your children (and you) will enjoy singing.

“…I finished the first album…and the children wanted more! So I had to keep writing to keep them happy! This second in the series is a little more folk-flavoured with some wonderful guest musicians on mandolin, bouzouki, banjo…all sorts! For grown-ups with great musical taste who have children with good musical taste!”

We have included three bonus backing tracks so your child can be the lead singer! Our beautiful new packaging makes this CD an ideal gift. Full colour six panel cardboard digipak with illustrations by Chloe Batchelor.

Another great collection of original children’s songs from the Excellent family made especially for your family, including I Love Cake, Geti That Yeti, The Wheels Go Round and My Dragon.

Al Start writes children’s songs with edge and style. These are for your little monsters who have out-grown nursery rhymes and haven’t yet ventured into the world of pop music and rock stars. Ideal for age 4-8 yrs.

Volume 3 has a more folky-bluegrass feel to the album as wonderful musicians such as Carol Levi on banjo, bouzouki, acoustic and electric guitars; Linda Game on fiddle, and Deborah Shurvell on mandolin, all adding their beautiful musicianship to the mix!

We have included three bonus backing tracks so your child can be the lead singer!

This little gem of an album is a narrated musical show! Al narrates the piggy action (voiced by original cast members Nicola Bloom and Fran Malone) as the three little pigs set off on an adventure of a lifetime.

It is stuffed with great original songs along the way (played by Al's amazing band) and makes a fantastic audio story for the car, bedtime or a rainy day. Perfect for your under 8s.

We have added bonus spooky tracks from Al's other albums and soundtracks to make this your ultimate spooky collection!
