Video Kudos
Joe Scruggs in Concert has been selected as a 1993 Notable Children’s video by the American Library Association.
Joe Scruggs in Concert has won the 1993 National Parenting Publications Gold Winner Award.
…as far as his fans, children, are concerned, he’s bigger than Garth Brooks or Whitney Houston…He’s a good singer with a great sense of humor, and, best of all, this video has a lot of variety (something usually missing from filmed concerts)…If you’re looking for a fun way to spend the evening with your family in front of the TV, you’ve got a front row seat to one of the best.
Joe Scruggs’s…song Bahamas Pajamas is simply one of the most clever children’s songs I have ever heard. This tape will please children from 3 to 10 (even my 11 year old was caught enjoying himself!)
Review by Val Smalkin, December 1993
Joe Scruggs in Concert is a multimedia music video that uses great tunes, colorful puppets, huge props, and video special effects to deliver an hour of rousing entertainment for the whole family…Highly recommended.
Review by Randy Pitman, April 1993
Every aspect of this splendid show celebrates pure, unadulterated, dazzling entertainment that is fun for the whole family.
Review by Martha Dewing, January 1993
Joe Scruggs in Concert is a delight the whole family can enjoy. Unlike many in concert tapes, this one goes way beyond singer and song–Joe Scruggs makes lavish use of puppets, palm trees, and singing partners, including a captivated audience of kids and parents.
Congratulations! Your film has been selected as a finalist in the 23rd annual USA Film Festival’s National Short Film and Video Competition.
Batten down the hatches…Joe is up to his old shenanigans with his newest musical delight for all to adore.
I cannot tell you who was more mesmerized by Joe and his songs, the parents or the children… AAPC heartily recommends this video and as one senior member put it all kids age 2 to 73 should see it.
Review by Dora Sharpe
A combination of humor, lots of props, and well-conceived sets and backdrops make this video entertaining.
March 1993
