Full review

I don't like to give bad reviews because I like to see the best in everything, but I honestly can not do that with this CD.

Fair enough, it has twelve different songs in various styles of music - some dance, pop, a rather slow song and even a line dance! About four of the songs are rather well known (indicated with *)

The tracks are as follows;

Can we fix it? *
Mambo No. 5 *
Bob's Line Dance
Right tool for the Job
Let's get busy
What can I do? (Spud's song)
Blonde haired Gal In a hard hat (Wendy's song)
Dizzy! *
Super Spud (Spud's dub)
No one can dig it like we do
No prob Bob!
Crocodile Rock (with Elton John) *

The cover is bright and cheerful, with a picture of Bob in his usual attire, with a brown coat on and a microphone in his hand. On the back is a list of tracks and a small picture of the "crew".

I would say that this CD would have a rather short shelf life, I mean, there's only so many times you can listen to Can we fix it?

I can't compare this against a similar product as it's the first time I've bought this type of CD, the reaon I bought it was because I have been impressed with the standard of the Bob the Builder DVD's,and thought that this product would be of a similar standard. Sadly not.

I have no idea of the retail cost as I picked mine up at a boot sale, I think i'd be kicking myself if I'd bought it at it's full price!

I don't think even the would-be Bob's and Wendy's will like this CD for too long, though I can't speak from experience because my son's a little on the young side to be totally mad about a tv show yet.....I don't think I could bear the thought of him wanting to play this CD over and over again!
