I love Buster Poindexter! - By: Purple Pug 888, 05 Apr 2008 
This is the debut album from the pop cultural phenomenon with, amongst other things, its own star on the Hollywood walk of fame, THE SIMPSONS.
This album features 5 original Simpson's songs & 5 covers of classic blues songs, all sungin the inimitable Simpson's style.
1.DO THE BARTMAN - 5:11.
A number one hit co written by Michael Jackson!
2.SCHOOL DAY - 3:57.
A rockin' cover of Chuck Berry's song, featuring Bart Simpson & Buster Poindexter {David Johansen.}
3.BORN UNDER A BAD SIGN - 3:08.
Dan Castellaneta doing Homer Simpson doing Albert King!
4.MOANIN' LISA BLUES - 4:49.
My favourite linein this BLACK VELVET {Alannah Myles} sounding song is "I'm down so low, if I cheered up I'd still be depressed!"
Sounds different to when it featuredin the season 1 episode MOANING LISA, but it's equally as good, if not better!
5.DEEP DEEP TROUBLE - 4:28.
Bart raps about what happened to him "Once upon a time, about a week ago."
6.GOD BLESS THE CHILD - 4:31.
The slowest & most soulful song on the album. It features Lisa Simpson & Bleeding Gums Murphy {Ron Taylor}.
7.I LOVE TO SEE YOU SMILE - 3:07.
A Marge & Homer duet.
8.SPRINGFIELD SOUL STEW - 2:38.
Marge Simpson's version of MEMPHIS SOUL STEW.
Play it loud, & play it proud!
9.LOOK AT ALL THOSE IDIOTS - 3:52.
Harry Shearer talking to himself! {He voices Mr Burns AND Mr Smithers!}
10.SIBLING RIVALRY - 4:40.
A Bart & Lisa duet.
ALBUM DURATION: 40 minutes 23 seconds.
Also, this album features B.B King, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Dr John & Marcy Levy.
This album doesn't come with song words, but the enclosed booklet does contain five small black & white pictures of the Simpson's cast with their aliases.
The perfect soundtrack to accompany a mundane chore; it'll goin a flash!
Utterly fabulous!
Fantastic - By: J. E. Davidson, 03 Feb 2005 
This album is fantastic - it is a wonderful fusion of two of my favourite things: the Simpsons & the blues.
This is not a rip-off designed to cashin on the fame of the Simpsons. It is a fabulous CDin its own right.
The songs are all sung by members of the Simpsons family - the lyrics are original & appropriate to the character. The music is mostly blues classics (with some original material) performed by fantastic (and famous) blues musicians. I could have done without Bart rapping but this is not a major complaint - Lisa singing the Moanin' Lisa Blues more than compensated.
It brought a smile to my face & joy to my heart.
Something for everyone - By: , 12 Feb 2002 
This is definately a fantastic album. The tracks on it range from Bart & Jazzy Jeff rapping, to Homer & Marge Singing a catchy 1940's tune. It is really well worth owning & at the price, a steal.
A must have for any Simpsons fan.
FUNKY FAMILY - By: Pieter, 18 Dec 2001 
Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa & Maggie pour their hearts out about their garishly-coloured livesin a mixture of classic covers & songs written especially for them. Bart delivers the dance-raps of Do The Bartman & Deep Deep Trouble & also duets with Buster Pointdexter on Chuck Berry's School Days with Joe Walsh's guitar solos. Homer, full of woe & trouble, croons the classic blues Born Under A Bad Sign & Marge covers Springfield Soul Stew to the melody of Memphis Soul Stew. Together the two of them sing the romantic duet I Love To See You Smile with Dr John on piano & Roger McGuin on banjo. Blueshound Lisa shines on the Billie Holiday standard God Bless The Child & the original Moanin' Lisa Blues. This family is hot!
How can you grow tired of this? - By: , 31 May 2001 
If you like the TV show, buy the videos & worship the never-grow-old nature of the characters, thenthsi is the album for you. In my collection of Limp Bizkit, RATM, Metallica & Deftones, it seems a TADGE out of place, but it has mein creases every time - Homer's choices of jazz names for himself will NEVER not be funny!
