IT'S FUN TO EAT

Week 27


Description

We stumbled upon this rare and beautifully preserved album on eBay - it must have been 
stored since it was produced in 1946.  Condition is flawless!  Play this for your little ones to instruct and entertain them on the importance of eating.  Two names that may ring a bell associated with this recording are Winston Sharples and Jack Mercer.  Sharples scored countless animated shorts, including Famous Studios' Popeye.  Mercer, who sings on Sip-Sip Supper (Side 5 and 6), was the voice of the one-eyed sailor for years as well as many other cartoon characters.  He can also be heard on Joey the Jeep (Week 35).  Speaking of Popeye, this would be as good a place as any to show off our treasured box of Buitoni Macaroni with added spinach.  A childhood favorite from the mid 1960s!
