Rankin/Bass' The Wacky World of Mother Goose on TCM May 11th!
Shawn Mulligan alerted me to the fact that TCM is showing Rankin/Bass'
The Wacky World of Mother Goose starring the voice talent of Oscar
Winner Margaret Rutherford on May 11th. I Co-Produced the dvd release
with Anchor Bay many years ago and helped with the cd soundtrack release
(which is excellent!) as well. While the film is not one of the better
entries in the Rankin/Bass catalog, it has many interesting facts
related to it. This was the first Rankin/Bass Production that
Paul Coker, Jr. got involved with by designing the LP cover. I was
originally going to call my first book The Wacky World of Rankin/Bass,
but Arthur didn't think of his work as Wacky 
:)!
At any rate, I have offered to provide the back stories on these
Joseph E. Levine films on Turner Classic Movies (as recently as a few
weeks ago) and hope to do just that one day. It's Mad Monster Party's
50th and they show it every so often. I have a large ring binder full
of The Daydreamer as well. Shawn says The Daydreamer soundtrack is on
Spotify and Itunes now. I don't believe it is the version with the
extra tracks and my long
interview with Maury Laws, but glad it is
available. #tcm #turnerclassicmovies #hollywood #rankinbass #josephelevine #thewackyworldofmothergoose #margaretrutherford #georgewilkins #paulcokerjr
