RugratsRecords & CDs

Looking for Rugrats music? You can now get it on these albums:
Toon Tunes (Kid Rhino)

Released in 1997, this CD contains 50 themes spanning about 60 years of TV animation. This is the first album to feature any Rugrats music. Bob Jagarsky writes in his review from the :rec.music.reviews newsgroup (via Deja News; this is an extract from his review):

        For the people who have only seen Schoolhouse Rock (represented
here with possibly its most famous song, "Conjunction Junction") in
repeats, 90s themes such as "The Simpsons", "Animaniacs", and
"Rugrats" may get multiple repeats on the disc player.
The Best of Nicktoons (Kid Rhino)

A 41-song compilation featuring the best music from Nick's animated shows, including these Rugrats songs:

The Opening Theme
The Closing Theme (another version of the opening)
The Rugrats Rap (as seen between shows on Nickelodeon, as well as on the Chuckie The Brave & Harriet The Spy videos)
Rugrats Rock (same as above, but seen on video only on Harriet The Spy)
Reptar Cereal Jingle (from Incident In Aisle 7)
I'm Just A Dinosaur (from Reptar On Ice)
