minkey1980 Posted January 3, 2011 Share 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..,...

Stingray5 Posted January 3, 2011 Share 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 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Note that while the rest of the band are apes the drummer is a monkey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peted Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Watched this with my 2 year old too. Couldn't wait for the last coconut and the big zing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartelby Posted January 4, 2011 Share 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.
