It all started when i heard one of their christmas songs on the radio, and soon i was hooked. Their high pitched voices and cute appearance make their CDs great gifts for all ages. Plus, unlike some of the music kids listen to now, all of the songs' messages are positive and funny. I have two CDs of Alvin's music and i listen to them all the time!!!
BUY ALVIN'S CDS!!!!!!!!!!!!! TODAY!!!!!!!!!

All I have to say when I first put this CD in I had high expectations that I thought Alvin and the boys could not meet, but after cranking up track one I knew I was on the fast track to musci heaven. These guys hit all the notes and did all my favorites on this album. If I was not 25, not living in my mothers basement, and actually had something other than and FM/AM radio in my car I would let the world here this album. Keep on truckin' Chipmunks!

The Chipmunks were one of the most avant-garde groups of the late 50's and 60's. To heck with the Shaggs, Dylan and Zappa, the 'Munks made truly subversive recordings disguised as harmless "childrens records" designed to make little kids disrepect thier parents, teachers and other authority figures. Alvin was a true anarchist (why'd you think he wore that "A"?) shooting guns inside the studio (Cowboy Ragtime Joe) way before gangsta rappers made it all the vouge and changing Dave's MOR arrangements on the fly (Alvin's Harmonica) to cha-cha-cha or Rock N Roll. He shoulda got that Hula-Hoop...
That said, the 80's Chipmunks were a huge disapointment when they made thier comeback. Ross Jr. made the chipmunks as safe as boring as the Smurfs. The LP's (Chipmunk Punk?!) were equally as dull, sometimes Alvin's voice was a sped-up female voice! The original Liberty albums were the real deal - they are childrens classics that bring back a lot of joy to Baby Boomers. (Just be careful what tracks you play to your kids) I agree with other reviewers that this collection should have been more comprehensive. A box set or at least a 2-CD set with every David Seville and Chipmunk 45 plus any unreleased gems would be great.

I bought this for my kids because I knew they would love these songs just as I did. Forget them! I love it! There is NOTHING like the Chipmunks and never will be again. The Christmas song is worth the price alone. Don't think about it. Just get it.

I am an avid fan of the chipmunks. I was there when they first came out. I have the original 45's of The Witch Doctor, The Bird Sitting On My head which are really not the Chipmunks, but I have Alvins Harmonica and The christmas Song and Ragtime Cowboy Joe. I was disappointed when I listened to the first few songs on this album. They aren't the original recordings. I think that should be mentioned. I do have the Greatest HIts of the Chipmunks which are the originals, but they put only 10 or 11 songs on the cd and non of the David Seville songs. I know the original recordings are on Liberty records. I'm not sure if they are still around, but someone must have the original tapes. Lets get the original recordings on cd and not just 10 songs. I would definately get the Grestest hits with the 10 songs. At least they are the originals.
