ROCK THE CRADLE

Some creative entity called Baby Rock Records has put out CDs containing lullabye versions of songs by popular groups (under the name Rockabye Baby!). From their website:

Baby Rock Records transforms timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies, sending your little one to a slumberland of sweet dreams. Delicate instruments such as the glockenspiel, vibraphone, mellotron, harp and bells create a soothing atmosphere of sound. These charming recordings are sophisticated enough for everyone to enjoy, yet gentle enough for your little angel. This is cherub rock for a new generation.

So far, they've covered Metallica, Radiohead, Coldplay, Pink Floyd, and even TOOL.

I can't imagine what their versions of Paranoid Android and Schism sound like. Apparently they're selling well, because Beach Boys, Nirvana, The Cure, No Doubt, Queens of the Stone Age (hopefully, these lullabyes don't paralyze, right?), The Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins, Led Zeppelin and Beatles collections are forthcoming.

Yikes. I think I'll wait until the greatest hits album comes out.
