Fruity tutti

img_4529.JPG

Goofy Grape and the Whole Funny Face Gang “Sings Awful” On Mark 56 Records. A Pillsbury (Funny Face) Production. Backed by a killer studio session group including Rootin’ Tootin’ Raspberry, Loudmouth Lime, Jolly Olly Orange, Freckle Face Strawberry, Choo-choo Cherry and Lefty Lemon.

(Editor’s Note: The voice of Goofy Grape and his whole gang is the work of one man – Paul Frees, who unbelievably was also the Pillsbury Doughboy, George Harrison AND John Lennon in the animated Saturday morning Beatles cartoon series, Boris Badenov, Mr. Bedrock, Toucan Sam, Morocco Mole, Secret Squirrel, Squiddley Diddley and too many other classic TV cartoon characters to mention. Thanks Carl for making the point!)

Great books

img_4383.JPG

“Classics Story Teller” on the Golden Records’ Great Literature Series.   A record tie-in to the comic book series “Classics Illustrated”   I was a fan of these comic books and was introduced to many of the great books by reading them.   I also read Casper, Archie, Captain America, Fantatic Four, Aquaman, Batman, Superman, Richie Rich and Horror Movie magazines.   Then I found a Playboy while doing my paper route and soon after sold my comic book collection.
