Music for sawing wood

Mr. Dress Up aka Fancy Pants.   From a Canadian Broadcasting Company TV Show.  I guess like their Capt. Kangaroo and Mr. Green Jeans.

   Mr Dress Up… only to play with toys and saw wood ! One would imagine a latter day Mr Dress Up would be doing something more risque.

   (ha ha Romartus!)

   Mr. Dressup was THE quintessential children’s viewing here in Canada from the late 1950’s until about 5 years after his passing when they stopped showing reruns, approximately 2 years ago! I don’t think any show ran as long on Canadian TV.

   I’ve seen a couple of his LP’s but this one looks to be the oldest, judging from the CBC logo on the jacket.

   Yes, Mr. Dress-Up was our version of Captain Kangaroo. He was brought to Canada by none other than Fred Rogers. Mr. Rogers’ Neighbourhood started here in Canada folks. So put that in your bubble pipe and puff it.

   I think Joe Flaherty stole this guys’ act (or at least his look).

   Mr. Dress Up, who do you have with you today? Why, it’s Pernilla, the tiny little hooker of Tinytown!
