What people are saying about "Hooked on Yodeling" |
|||
| If you have a hankering for REAL alpine jodeling, get this CD. When I first heard Kerry performing, it brought back fond memories of my Opa (grandfather) and his friends jodeling up a storm in the Olympic mountains, and in the mountain's valley meadows when we visited his home in Austria. Kerry's yodeling calls are in German and English. High on a Mountain, and Lueg Bezyte with the Alpine Horn are outstanding.
For any one wanting to learn how to yodel, Kerry's U2 Can Yodel is also highly recommended. Both of these CDs are well produced and well worth adding to your CD collection. Edward Sedelmeier, from Burg Jagerhof, Port Angeles, Washington, USA |

| If you are allergic to joy, laughter, and happiness, stay away from this album. It is infectus...like a virus. Only this is a good virus. It will make your feet stomp and hands clap. And if you are fortuante enough to have yodeling ability, it would make a wonderful Karaoke. Buy and enjoy.

| Of the few yodel albums available, "Hooked on Yodeling" is sure to be the most definitve and true to this unique and wonderfully kitch vocal art. Kerry Christensen is a master of this difficult craft and his agility as a yodeler soars to fantastic proportions on specialty cuts such as "The Chicken Yodel" and many others. Emilie Chirstensen provides us with an unusual introduction to what kids can do with yodeling in "Teach Me How to Yodel". I recommend this recoding to anyone with a broad sense of humor who is down in the dumps...nothing can bring a smile to the lips faster than a robust yodeler going at full speed, and this CD provides just that. The album is well-produced with some haunting multi-track echo effets, and lyrics mostly in German, with some songs in English. No translation is provided but in the whacky world of yodeling, words are hardly what one is listening for. A great way to cheer yourseolf up!
