The deluxe illustrated songbook from the one and only Sandra Boynton, is full of attitude, full of fun, and all lit up with star power. Dog Train is a Recording Industry Association of America Gold Album with more than 600,000 copies in print. Original rock-and-roll music, written by Sandra Boynton, and sung by rock favorites like Blues Traveler, The Spin Doctors, Hootie and the Blowfish, and more! Arrangements and music production by that renowned team, Boynton & Fordâwho were Grammy-nominated for Philadelphia Chickens. They have two Gold Records and one Platinum. Over three million of their albums have been sold and loved.
Blues Traveler performs a stomping version of the title song, a moody rock journey that Boynton wrote especially for them. And then thereâs Alison Krauss with âEvermore.â And Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorméâreallyâwho do the âBoring Song.â
The Spin Doctors, who channel rockâs rebellious sideâwith a taste of punkâfor âTantrumâ: âNo No No, I donât want to, I donât want to./No no no, I donât want to, no no./Leave me alone. Leave me alone./LEAVE ME ALONE.â And the sweetly unexpected pairing of âWeird Alâ Yankovic and Kate Winslet (yep, Kate Winslet) as a duet singing âI Need a Nap.â
The full-color book features a portion of each songâs lyrics set as a little story, illustrated with Boyntonâs irresistible hippos, cows, dogs, and more dogs. Full lyrics appear in the back.
