For those of you who know the music of Rochelle 'Bunky' Skinner and Alan 'Jake' Jacob, you know how great their music is and how rare albums are to come by, even over the Internet! CDBABY.COM now brings you a rare opportunity to listen to and purchase your very own collection of heartwarming children's songs written and performed by the internationally famous musical duo - Bunky and Jake!
Bunky and Jake met in art school in New York City during the 1960's. B&J were soon regulars during the magical Greenwich Village folk scene. Bunky and Jake appeared at the Bitter End on the bill with Joni Mitchell and David Steinberg and were written up in Rolling Stone.
Jake, an established singer/songwriter, performed with The Magicians, a band with Garry Bonner, Alan Gordon and John Townley. The Magicians gained a following in New York and took over as house band from the Lovin' Spoonful at the Night Owl Cafe. Felix Pappalardi, future Cream producer and Mountain member, wanted to join them as their bassist.
When Bunky and Jake teamed up, an incredible songwriting team was born, and now, through the magic of the internet and digital recording, here are Bunky and Jake, and 'Oo-Wee Little Children!"

One of the best children's albums ever made by two of folk music's best singer/s
author: Bobo Lavorgna
This album of children's songs truly is for children of all ages - from 5 to 50 to 150! While virtually all of the songs were inspired by urban experiences, even children who grew up on a farm will relate to these amazing stories told by two of American folk music's amazing singer/songwriter duos: Bunky and Jake! Stories of inspiration, of the hazards of too much T.V., and the sights and sounds of riding on the subway. It's about time! A must have for any album collection!!

Amazing collection of children's songs for children of any age.
author: Bobo
For those of you who know the music of Rochelle 'Bunky' Skinner and Alan 'Jake' Jacob, you know how great their music is and how rare albums are to come by. This collection of heartwarming children's songs showcases songs about change, life in the city, the joys and difficulties of growing up in a changing world. If I had to choose a favorite, it's a tie between The King WHo Watched Too Much TV and Bing Bong The Subway Song.
