minkey1980 Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 So just wanted to share an experience with you... , there I was sitting with my 2 year old lad watching Cbeebies when Zing Zillas comes on. Hmmm I think, cup of tea time. Anyway, as I start walking away I hear some proper funk bass emitting from the tv set and turn round to see Stu Zender with his amazing signature Warwick playing with a load of monkey puppets... I mean, just how good can kids telly get???? Dont believe me, well its on You tube. wow..,... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJrHWmCjfx0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJrHWmCjfx0[/url] Quote

Stingray5 Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Jeez, when did kids TV get so cool? I see they've also had the likes of percussionist Evelyn Glennie, slide guitarist Michael Messer and even keyboardist Dr Lonnie Smith - aka Lonnie Liston Smith.

Dom in Dorset Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Note that while the rest of the band are apes the drummer is a monkey. Quote
peted Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Watched this with my 2 year old too. Couldn't wait for the last coconut and the big zing! Quote
bartelby Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 [quote name='Johnston' post='1077097' date='Jan 4 2011, 10:32 AM']Also notice that Drum is the only one without much vocabulary .[/quote] And called the same as the "instrument" she plays, so she can remember. I love Zingzillas. Favorite episodes so far have been the Theremin one and the Evelyn Glennie one. Not seen the Zender one yet, but it's only a matter of time. Quote
