I loved these albums as a kid.





Does wanting these again make me a even more totaler geek?


Oh well. I want them. Nyah.

I have a "mix record" of Disney tunes from different movies, and one of them was the disco version of Mickey Mouse Club. I recorded it onto a tape and I remember standing in the middle of my bedroom with a pair of folded-up socks as a microphone, singing along. I also sang along to "Someone's Waiting for You" from the Rescuers. I loved that stuff. :)

You should see the Cinderella and Snow White records I have - the records themselves have gorgeous pictures all over both sides. I should have 'em appraised.

I had an album similar to the Mickey Mouse Disco one - it was called "Mousercise". It's campy to an embarassing degree, but I'll never chunk it.

I used to have the Rescuers album, as well as Pete's Dragon. The rescuers one always scared me, because I'd read along while it played, and the little girl trapped in the hole trying to pry the gem loose was scary, and those people were so mean to her.

I didn't have the book, so I left it to my imagination to make the pictures. They were vaguely reminiscent of what would become Silence of the Lambs. *shudder*

As scared as I would get, I still loved listening to it.

...The Rescuers Down Under just didn't have the same magic.

Haaahahahaheeee!

I remember the Micky Disco one!
*hums* Macho, Macho Duck...

I think I probably got close to wearing it out, too. I used to have the Mary Poppins one as well.

Oooo...it's on CD!

Yeah, I used to have that on vinyl myself. ;)

I also remember having the Annie and Ghostbusters soundtracks, but for some stupid, stupid reason which I cannot recall anymore, I got rid of all of my 78s. Except for the American Tail soundtrack. No clue why I kept that one. Kept all of the 45s I ever had, though. And have a new collection of 78s with cool stuff like the Beatles.

I used to have Gizmo and the Gremlins on 45 with all the books. Then my mom gave them away. I'm still irked about that.

Jeebus. I used to have those exact same records when I was a kid. Listened to them ALL the time. I think The Rescuers was one of those 'read along' dealies, which I used to love.

Spork!

Are you kidding?

Not saying you're mondo nerdo, but I can relate.

I cannot say one good thing about that Howard The Duck movie in the early 80's, but I was willing to pay fifty dollars to get a framed movie poster of it.

Proof, if any were needed, that George Lucas is a terrible director.

Well, if any, George Lucas is as good of a director as Steven Spielberg...with noted flaws. Ol' Georgie is a fanatic of special effects, whereas Steve doesn't know when to end the movie.

But I likeed da Howard The Duck because of the duck costume, and Lea Thompson.

I'm getting all warm and fuzzy remembering how much I used to love the Rescuers album - thanks for the memories. :)

I had them and want them back, too!
I also has Sesame Street Fever. I loved the disco version of "Doin' The Pigeon," by Bert.

Please tell me you're joking...

!!!

...I want my Fisher-Price record player back, too.

I so used to groove to "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen when I was a wee Sexyscholar.

nope. not even joking. my FP record player is covered in Jem stickers. My favorite song on the disco album had something to do with Goofy. He would fall or slip and ruin everything and all the ladies were supposed to "watch out!"

That would be "Watch Out for Goofy."

My favorite as well. With that one and "Macho Duck," I was un campista feliz.

i definately still have mickey mouse disco on vinyl, along with a bunch of sesame street records, an electric company record, and the fischer-price record player
those records weren't mine 'cause i'm only 22, they were my sisters
but after i got over my intense fear of record players (around the age of 5), i rocked out to that shit   :)
