Kookie



Jumpin’ Jamie. Performed by Jamie Theurich. CD. Approx. 31 min. 2018. Download: $9.49.

K-Gr 3—

            Jumpin’ Jamie (aka Jamie Theurich) performs 12 original songs mostly in a punk rock style, as he has been influenced by the bands Green Day, REM, The Beatles, Weezer, and Ash. The Dinosaur Troubadour’s first album is backed by excellent instrumental performances on guitar, bass, keys, synthesizer, harmonica, Melodica, xylophone, drums, and percussion. “Back to the Future” celebrates the first two movies in that franchise. What do “Astronauts Love” and how do they pass the time? “Words” include parts of speech, are found in the dictionary, and come in many languages.  An “Herbivore” could be a horse, an elephant, or a stegosaurus. The “Little Crow” is walking down the street, because he doesn’t know how to fly. The “Ghost in My House” is really annoying. “Second Place” is still great because we had fun together. “The Rise and Fall of Argentinosaurus” tells about the discovery of one of the largest sauropods found. “I Wanna Be Healthy” features guest vocalists Peter Tork (Monkees), The Amazing Kreskin, Jack Forman (Recess Monkey), and many others. Why do adults drink “Coffee,” watch football, and smoke cigarettes? The other songs include
“All the Animals Are My Friends” and “The Jungle Song.” This high energy album will have listeners rocking and rolling all over the house.
