Swanky People Have Record Players - Page 4

HTHBellcaptain · 02-04-2005, 10:28 PM

Well, I went on a vinyl shopping spree with ManhattenFan and Flippyshark this afternoon. Here's my swanky hall for the afternoon:

Phil Harris (Definately a cool cat)
The Hi-Lo's (Swanky harmonies)
Cab Calloway (A prince of swank if ever there was one)
Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass (3 albuums)
Henry Mancini - Music of Hawaii (Smooth and swanky)

O.K., now I'll take off my swanky fidora, and put on my Disney geek hat.
I also got:
A Musical Souvenir of America on Parade (A picture disc of the Disney 1976 parade)
Spring - Music by Camarata (Under the Disneyland Label)
Johnny Appleseed (With Dennis Day)
The Happiest Millionaire (A fun Musical)

OO, I had this album, though I've never seen the movie. Love the song Fortunosity, and can still sing along with it when I hear it on the Main Street loop.

And when he has a fever.........

(I can always tell when he has a fever as he starts singing strange songs.)

I went record shopping again today. I got some Hi-Lo's, Martin Denny, Bent Fabric, and my favorite title "Colonel Sander's Tijuana Picnic."

When I think Bent Fabric, it's always "The Alley Cat," which leads directly to Chris Elliott... and then I smile.

HTH, I can't believe you didn't play Colonel Sanders' Tijuana Picnic for me last night. I'm very disappointed in you.

You can get a DVD copy of The Happiest Millionaire at your local Costco...just a pan and scan, but at least it is available!

It's actually matted widescreen (1.66:1), but it's not anamorphic and the print quality is pretty weak. But it is the longer 'roadshow' version.

Meanwhile, back to vinyl, there's a local vinyl store that has a clean copy of the Saludos Amigos lp, but he want $75 for it... I must admit I'm tempted, but ouch.

You're right, it WAS Ally Cat! Do de do do do do do do de do, do do de do do do (ba da dum). I had both the 45 of Ally Cat and Popcorn (still do, actually). Of course, I don't get the Chris Elliott reference.

I do have some albums in the house. Hmmmm, what's here?

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - Original Cast Soundtrack.
It's a Samll World - picture cover, unopened! (That's not good)
It's a Small World - 18 favorite folk songs withthe Mary Blair cover
Songs from Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom (with advertisements for "Music for a Rainy Night" and "I Love Paris" and others on the back).
Doctor Dolittle Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (don't even THINK I'm talking Eddie Murphy here)
Firehouse Five Plus Two at Disneyland (sitting in a teacup with the old Fantasyland in the background)
Mary Poppins Original Cast Soundtrack with Julie and Dick
Other Worlds, Other Sounds - Esquivel and his orchestra.

Funny, the garage is filled with punk rock.
