This first filmed concert by Raffi illustrates his immense charm. The soft-spoken singer leads his turquoise-clad, four-member band through 20 songs with a rapt audience of kids and parents singing along. Raffi's easy manner and fluid vocals create an atmosphere that is very welcoming to youngsters, easily going from cute songs ("Apples and Bananas") to popular songs ("Day O") to a Spanish number ("De Colores") without ever losing them. The video also captures another key element of Raffi's success--his gaze is always inviting. The songs (also available on CD) include Raffi favorites "Everything Grows" and "Baby Beluga" and lots of standards. A wonderful time for ages 2-10 and adults. --Doug Thomas

Raffi in Concert April 19, 2008
Nathan J. Churchill (Brazil)
If you want to get your kids interested in music, this is probably the best ways to start. An absolutely fantastic video (or now DVD).
This purchase is to replace the old VHS tape we had. The only gripe is that the quality of the image is 1990's.
A great DVD for children January 14, 2008
Susan BR (Rhode Island)
I bought this DVD for a young person for Christmas. He was thrilled with it. I love Raffi's easy way with kids. He never speaks down to them. His music is interesting and fun. The DVD is very well done.
A gentle soul, appropriate for all ages January 27, 2007

Raffi is the type of person who just wants every child in this world to be happy. He delights everyone with his infectious songs and warmth, no matter what the age. I never mind sitting down to watch with my toddlers because I actually LIKE the songs, just as much as they do. We also listen to the CDs which helps them know the words. This was made in the 80s so the audience members have clothes that are a bit dated, but it matters not at all. Your kids will love him. No cartoon images, and no sudden camera movements.
Something old, new again! January 10, 2007
Rita I. Brunetti (Smithfield, Rhode Island)
When our God-child was very young his mom purchased this item in the form of a video tape. This young man is now 21 years old. After hearing it I was hooked and have continued to introduce it to many youngsters. This past Christmas season my husband and I gave the DVD to both of our new grandsons. They will surely enjoy the gift that Raffi offers to his audience.
 Lots of entertainment for a small child August 16, 2005
