Program Notes
Les Taylor, with tongue in cheek, parlays Merrily We Roll Along; Tiny Toon Adventures Theme Song; I'm Popeye the Sailor Man; The Pink Panther; The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down; and This Is It! into about five minutes of the happiest sounds around. This is for the kid in all of us. And guess what -- no commercials!
