Bach and Brahms just might enhance your wee one's intelligence, but today's parents are ready to expand beyond familiar horizons -- which is where Baby Rock Records comes in. The label has lovingly transformed songs by some of today's biggest rock acts into soothing instrumentals, rendered by glockenspiel, vibraphone, mellotron, harp, and bells. Lullaby Renditions of Radiohead will soothe babies just as it wows caregivers, who will be happily surprised by how easily the edgy rock band's tunes are refitted for the nursery. Included are sweet versions of such Radiohead favorites as "Paranoid Android," "Karma Police," "Let Down," and "Everything in Its Right Place."

All Music Guide

Each release in the Rockabye Baby! series takes the best-known songs of a particular artist and places them in a lullaby processor that involves chimes, bells, and vibraphones -- renditions that are slightly more involved than the music that comes out of the average baby mobile. Whether the original versions are heavy and aggressive or light and subdued, these lullaby versions are uniformly appropriate for their purpose. And, in some cases, they even happen to tease out an unlikely amount of melodicism not apparent in the originals. The Radiohead volume features versions of "Everything in Its Right Place," "Karma Police," "Knives Out," "Subterranean Homesick Alien," "Paranoid Android," and "Sail to the Moon." What, no "Morning Bell" or "Go to Sleep"? Andy Kellman
