by Stephen Thomas ErlewineSwingin' in the Rain is an enchanting collection of classic swing tunes from the '30s and '40s -- such as "A Bushel and a Peck," "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah," "Jeepers Creepers," "Mairzy Doats," "If I Baked a Cake," "Abba Dabba Honeymoon" and, of course, "Singin' in the Rain" -- that are given sweet, sunny arrangments designed to appeal to children. There's a light-heartedness and good sense of humor that makes this record inviting to both children and adults alike, and it confirms Muldaur's status as one of the best children's artists of the '90s.
