Product Description: There are thousands upon thousands of children's albums out there, but the one that quietly left its mark with more '70s children than perhaps any other album was this disc. Free to Be...You and Me was a pet project of proud feminist Marlo Thomas (a.k.a. "That Girl"), and it was born--according to the liner notes--by the desire to provide her niece with music "to celebrate who she was and who she could be." Harry Belafonte sings "Parents Are People," ex-football great Rosie Grier offers an incredible, touching melody titled "It's All Right to Cry," and Diana Ross waxes future-positive on "When We Grow Up." A great hour of brain food for young--and not-so-young--children. --Denise Sheppard


Customer Reviews


5 stars Very Uplifting, Message Still Inspires Today
I remember this inspirational program when I was a teenager. Marlo Thomas should be credited with being the first to instill in young people that they are free to be whatever, and whomever, they'd like to be.


5 stars A Classic Kids' Album
Great songs and funny skits from TV and comedy stars like Mel Brooks. Teaches kids good, progressive values using catchy, folky tunes even adults can enjoy.


5 stars An Oldie but a Goody
I have fond memories of this soundtrack from my childhood and it is still relevant today. I purchased it for my 4 year old - he isn't crazy about any of the songs but he LOVES track 2 with the babies. He has it memorized. He also likes the track about the boy who cries in front of the principal, and the track of the boy who wants a doll. I think the messages are subtle but they still get through.


2 stars Good for the Parents maybe.. but not the kids
This CD was a little old for my son. He prefers more of the nursery rhymes. Good quality but just not for us.


5 stars A classic - kids still love it
Bought this as a present for my 3 y.o. nephew. He loves it even though he hasn't seen the movie. Some of the songs don't make a lot of sense outside of the context of the movie but that doesn't seen to matter to him. It has become the no. 1 soundtrack in the family minivan.
