Amazon.com: Join Joe Scruggs in the depths of the jungle for a host of lively songs, wonderful puppet play, and some just plain silly fun. This folksy singer has a knack for tickling children's imaginations, so it's no wonder he's won the coveted Parent's Choice Award four times! There are 11 fun songs on this 51-minute video, and they run the gamut from traditional favorites to fanciful originals. Friends Pete Markham and Jeanie Runion join Scruggs on stage working puppets, acting in character skits, and even performing as featured soloists on some very unusual instruments. Take, for instance, the solo passage in "Old MacDonald" that features Markham on the Mattel See 'n Say"--you've got to see it to believe it! Far from a sedentary experience, this tape will have viewers clapping and contorting along with Scruggs and his audience--try Scruggs's musical version of the game Twister to the tune of "Put Your Thumb in the Air." The highlight of the video is the Cable ACE Award-winning song "Bahamas Pajamas," which features the Psychic Singers, two mind-reading birds with earmuffs "repeating" Joe Scruggs's lyrics to a love song he calls "Love in the Bahamas." You can't begin to imagine what those crazy birds come up with, but you can be sure that you and your child will be rolling with laughter. This video is very different from Joe Scruggs's first video, Joe TV. Instead of a conglomeration of animated segments, Live from Deep in the Jungle shows the real Joe Scruggs doing what he does best--entertaining live children with songs and puppets. This concert video is entertaining, engaging, and lots of fun for the whole family! (Ages 2 to 11) --Tami Horiuchi
