PreS-Gr 4—To make exercise fun, easy, and inviting, Learning Station Band (Don and Laurie Monopoli and Jan Hrkach) have created 19 dance songs in a wide variety of styles, such as jive, salsa, disco, cha cha, soul, fox trot, techno, hip hop, and others. Among the tunes are “Just Stroll,” “Spicy Salsa,” “Do the Funky Chicken,” “Doo Wop Dancing,” “Fox Trot Detectives,” and Hip Hop Fast.” The lyrics of each song give instructions for the dance moves. As in all of the group’s previous CDs, the musicianship is excellent. Background vocals are performed by the USA Kid Singers. Young and old alike will enjoy dancing to the many beats on this album. Perfect for story times, physical education and music classes, and for home use.
