...my daughter rocks when it comes to giving gifts. She knows that I love anything (and I mean anything) vintage Disney, so if she finds anything that fits that catagory, she snatches it up for little ol' me!
Today I'm featuring something she gave me a while back. Two Disneyland records, one for Lady and the Tramp and one for Mary Poppins. Here they are!
Pretty cool, huh? Quite frankly they had me at the vintage "Disneyland" logo, but let's dig in a little deeper, shall we?
These two records feature tracks from their respective films, with Lady and the Tramp showcasing "Siamese Cat Song" and "La La Lu" on side one and "Bella Notte" and "He's a Tramp" on side two. Mary Poppins features "Chim Chim Cher-ee" and "I Love to Laugh" on side one, and "Step in Time" and "Let's Go Fly a Kite" on side two. An interesting point is that Disney rarely released the actual tracks recorded for the movie, but, rather, rerecorded them for record distribution.
Although these records look very similar, they were, in fact released several years apart. Both were released right after their fims, with Lady and the Tramp being released in '57-'58 (there was some confusion on the exact date) and Mary Poppins being released in '64. Also, although these are 7 inch records, they are not 45s, but 33 1/3 rpm examples.
So there you have it! Two records with eight classic Disney tunes!
Thanks, Jess!
Until next time, keep searching for treasure!
