Chicken Joe Forgets Something Important

Chicken Joe, oddly enough a cat who sleeps in the hen house, is abruptly awoken one morning by roosters playing rock n roll. Somehow hes forgotten that its not just a day like any other; its his birthday! Making his way to the farmhouse for breakfast, Chicken Joe meets up with his friends, all of whom would rather joke around than remind the cat that todays his birthday. After all, they've planned a surprise party for their buddy. The chickens Helen and Hilda have baked a cake; Miss Kitty, the little dog from the city, has made a fish piata; and the mule, Mister, has gathered up some funny hats and noisy kazoos. Will Chicken Joe finally remember that todays a very special day, or will his friends have to tell him? In addition to narrating their story, the internationally renowned Trout Fishing in America performs 11 songs on the accompanying CD. Their witty, engaging lyricsdemonstrated on Rock and Roll Roosters, Me to Know and You to Find Out, C-A-T in the H-E-N House, and Youve Got a Funny Nameand splendid musicianship combine several musical styles including rock, country, folk, pop, and blues.
