The Banana Splits were on Saturday mornings when I was growing up. I think I knew it was bad even then, but the theme song was catchy and hey what else was I going to do while eating my cereal? – talk to my mom!? In fact, there was a Banana Split flexi 45 issued in a cereal box back then. I have it somewhere. I don’t remember which cereal though. Fyi, this record sells for about $100.

It’s amazing how many of TV’s supporting character actors of the sixties and seventies managed to get a record deal. I love finding a record by one of the TV stars I grew up with, especially obscure ones and ones that show them on the cover in character. This is a 45 picture sleeve. I don’t think he made a full-length lp.
