Here's What the Reviewers Say 'A TOUR DE FORCE FOR THE TODDLER SET: Marcus Gale releases concept album for kids' Call it the children's music equivalent of Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' or David Bowie's 'Ziggy Stardust.' Marcus Gale's new CD, 'So Glad!' is a concept record for children, telling the story of the perfect kid day. The record includes odes to the beach, dancing and playtime with best friends and best dogs. 'So Glad!' is, in short, a tour de force for those under 4 feet tall. Fosters Daily Democrat,2003 'YOU'LL BE 'SO GLAD!' YOU SAW MARCUS GALE (and your kids will be ecstatic)' The tools of Marcus Gale's trade are an acoustic guitar, two puppets named Froggie and Doggie, maracas and a blue cap he calls his 'singing hat.' 'I think about what a 4-year-old would think about,' said Gale of how he writes his songs. 'I look around at the world, at nature, at things kids would easily recognize and at basic fun experiences, and I come up with songs like 'Beach Day,' 'Best Friend' and 'My Dog'.' Gale's songs are upbeat, folksy and soothing. With lyrics like 'my dog is soft and furry/my dog likes to run/my dog never worries/my dog is lots of fun,' Gale keeps it basic. 'My message is that life is good and there is so much that makes you feel so glad,' said Gale. Portsmouth Press Herald Portsmouth,2003.
