Aerosmith’s long roster of rabble-rousing hits have never been said to put anyone to sleep. Until now.
…There are 12 songs here, including “Mama Kin,” “Dream On,” “Dude (Looks Like a Lady),” “Sweet Emotion” “Angel” and “Rag Doll.” Warm xylophones, plinky keyboards, happy bells, flighty flutes, wonky coconut-like claps, crickets and frogs dance through these instrumental-only arrangements, which are perfect for wake-up or bedtime.
The slowed pace and ticking-time effects and frog chirps on “Walk This Way” and “Cryin’” add a sneaky vibe to the classics. The songs aren’t dark or eerie as much as they are unusual and unconventionally sweet.
Because this is Aerosmith week on The Rockabye Baby Blog, we have to play you this awesome Steven Tyler rendition of a children’s music classic — I love Trash, the theme song of Oscar the Grouch! This recording is from Elmopalooza. Check it out!
And, just because we can never get enough Sesame Street, here’s a super early version, from when Oscar was orange!
Be sure to check out our new release, Lullaby Renditions of Aerosmith, featuring liner notes by Steven Tyler! Dream on, and on and on…
It’s official, Lullaby Renditions of Aerosmith lands today! You can now get your very own copy at your favorite cool baby boutique or at www.rockabyebabymusic.com. In case you’ve been sleeping under a rock and haven’t heard us yelling the news (and we wouldn’t blame you–we can fall asleep anywhere), this one is extra special because Steven Tyler wrote the liner notes!
He says:
“I have a grandson who I can’t wait to play these for. Our fans, who have been with us for years, are now parents and grandparents themselves. I know they’re going to love this album. ”
We say:
When your angel is cryin,’ try these sweet and soothing renditions of the Bad Boys from Boston’s biggest hits. We’ve made the Toxic Twins suitable for tiny ears, so yours won’t be the last child sleeping. Mama (and Dada) can finally rest through the night thanks to the familiar melodies of their favorite songs. Dream on, and on and on and on.
It’s that time again! Lullaby Renditions of Aerosmith is out tomorrow, so it’s Aerosmith week on the Rockabye Baby! Blog. Check back here daily for more Aero-fun, incuding a quiz, some cool videos and more!
Are you getting ready to have our new CD playing around the clock? In honor of the release day (tomorrow!) we offer you some Aerosmith themed gear to outfit your little angel and you.
Want some Aerosmith gear for baby mama? We found this awesome maternity shirt. And since it’s on Cafe Press, you can get the same images printed on bibs, onesies, baby shirts — you name it.
Listen to a sneak peek of Dream Onhere. Did we mention that Steven Tyler wrote the liner notes for our album? Oh, maybe only a few million times? Sorry, but you’d be braggin’ too if the Demon of Screamin’ was singing your praises!
If you’re like us, you’re inconsolable over the cancelled Aerosmith tour, and sending lots of good wishes for a speedy recovery to Steven Tyler. We were planning to see them on Friday, but we’ll be first in line when the bad boys from Boston come back to Los Angeles.
We hope this sneak peek of our lullaby rendition of Dude (Looks Like a Lady) helps cheer you up. Let us know what you think!
Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of Aerosmithcomes out September 15 and in case you haven’t heard the news, Steven Tyler wrote the liner notes. Says the legendary frontman, “In my mind, this is a perfect way to introduce a new generation to my music. I have a grandson who I can’t wait to play these for.”
Get well soon, Mr. Tyler!
