Just woke my wife up with "Daddy's Whiskers" (just realized how terrible that sounds, but whatever, I'm too tired to backspace right now.)

I'm a few years younger than you, but definitely had a lot of Disney records -- some were hand-me-downs and others, like the "Dick Tracy" storybook, were brand new.

Growing up in the 90s was all about "cool" Disney, when Michael Eisner was trying to get the teens in. So I had a lot of Disney stuff pushed on me with Mickey wearing shades and Goofy in baggy gangsta pants. And of course there was "Whoomp! (There It Went)" -- their collab with Tag Team.

Nice trim, Rob! I am a little bit older (57) and missed most of this stuff - a couple of years when you're a kid is a huge culture gap. In 1980 I was in junior high (13 years old) and majorly into Garfield (I know, it's a cross I bear). That is...a weird song.
