MUSIC REVIEW: Denver Westword  FEEDBACK - 7/15/99

By Michael Roberts

Paul Trunko, a member of the Keepers, is also a dad, which explains his latest, Jammy Man: Acoustic Music for Kids…. The album isn’t nearly as obnoxious as a lot of children’s music—parents probably won’t be applying for concealed-carry permits after hearing “Rock-A-Doos (The Rough House Blues)” and a heartfelt medley of “America the Beautiful/This Land Is Your Land.” But “Good Nap” is just the sort of thing that makes most kids stage sleep strikes, and I’m doubtful that the crawling instructions in “Loopy Doops” will help turn many infants into toddlers. They might do me some good, though (Jammyman@juno.com).
