<![CDATA[<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/bHudfLZdaSA" target="_blank" class="new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/bHudfLZdaSA</a>]]>Red Hot Chili Peppers and Chickenfoot drummer Chad Smith has teamed up with Mary Poppins star Dick Van Dyke to record a children's album.
'Rhythm Train', which has been co-produced by Smith with LA Kids singer Leslie Bixler, sees the sticksman play vocal characters like a pirate and train conductor on several tracks.
"I may not be playing as hard but I still am trying to be creative," Smith told Spinner.com, of playing drums compared with the Chili Peppers. "It's just trying to make the songs as good as I can. That doesn't change."
Songs that appear on the 13 track album include 'Roly Poly In My Guacamole' and 'Lotta Dinosaur'.
"I am certainly no rapper but I helped guide Dick with it the first day. It was pretty funny," Smith said.
"At my age, my generation, we are not particularly rap-crazy," Van Dyke added. "Rap has a great beat, but I swear to God, I have never been able to understand one word. I don't know what they're saying."
