SL> Did Bruce Metcalf say Disney Reference Books while humming
SL> "Chim-chim-cha-re"? I like that song!
No, the sound track for that post was "Night on Bald Mountain" from
"Fantasia". You should have your audio board checked!
SL> You are a doll, Bruce!
Is that why I feel a strange compulsion to jump out of the boat on "It's
a Small World"?
SL> BM> .        The Music of Disney: A Legacy in Song
SL> BM> .        by David J. Fisher
SL>BM> The recordings include the vocal talents of Dennis Day, Dick Van
SL>BM> Dyke, Maurice Chevalier, Thurl "They'rrrre Grrrreat!"
SL>BM> Ravenscroft, Leslie Nielson, Kirk Douglas (in his only recorded
SL>BM> piece), and Sean Connery!
SL> How interesting! Kirk Douglas? What was he singing? I would like to
SL> know all of these!
Kirk Douglas sang "A Whale of a Tale" in "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea".
The recording of it kinda explains why he didn't record any more.
SL> Did they mention that Roger Miller was also one of the vocal
SL> talents?
Of course, I just assumed that you would know he sang the part of
Allan-a-Dale the rooster in "Robin Hood".
SL>BM> [Editing a book that would cover] the thousands of Disney songs
SL>BM> not included would be a monumental task, but one that still needs
SL>BM> to be done--but it may need to be a twenty-seven CD set to hold
SL>BM> all the notes!
SL> And the problem would be?
Only got a six CD changer.
SL> I think it needs to be done! Soon!
I'll get started on a proposal for Hyperion as soon as I get a day free.
