At Weeki Wachee  Sung by Marlin and the Mermaids  ABC Paramount Records  A cool souvenir from Weeki Wachee, Florida.  1950’s Florida kitsch.  Bettie Page on the beach, the Fountainblue hotel, alligator wrestling, drag racing on the beach in Daytona Beach and Weeki Wachee Springs, the Florida tourist attraction where underwater performances by mermaids could be viewed in an aquarium-like setting.  Countless postcards, towels, ashtrays and other promotional items like this single and picture sleeve survive from the attraction’s gift shop.
