When my teenage son was three years old, his favorite band, The Wiggles! He would sing "Fruit Salad" at the top of his lungs, and he would sing it everywhere. The house, in the car, and even walking down the grocery aisle, 'fruit salad, yummy yummy!' We still have the DVDs and the CDs that we use to play in the car. So I saved them, thinking he might want them for his kids.

The Wiggles, a kid's educational learning group, is now singing classic rock? This is not the first time they have released songs for adults; in 2011, they released ReWiggled, a tribute album.

I had a chance to listen to 'Pub Feed' by the Wiggles, and honestly, not bad. They sound like the Clash. Will I get this new release? Most likely not, but who knows, I may get it for my son to add to his collection! The Wiggles are celebrating 30 years together. I can't believe I only started listening to them 13 years ago.
