It was much nicer today than yesterday [1] so Bunny and I went shopping. At one of the stores, this vinly record caught my eye:
[A picture of the “Barbie Sing-along” vinyl record, with Barbie, Ken, and three kids, one of which is darker than the other two] ♫One of these things is not like the others, / One of these things just doesn't belong, / Can you tell which thing is not like the others / By the time I finish my song?♫ [2]
And now I'm curious as to what other horrors could be found in this pile of records?
[A picture of the “Growing Pains” soundtrack] Seriously? They released a 90s TV show theme on vinyl? There was market for this? Who? No! Wait! I don't want to know! [3] [A picture of a record with Fonzie on the cover] And you thought William Shatner was bad! [4]
Those were the three worst I found, thankfully. I also found this album from Moms Mabley [5], a black comedienne popular in the 50s and 60s:
[Picture of Moms Mabley comedy album] A comedy album about Lincoln, Kennedy and King? By a black woman? This I have to hear! [6]
Just a bit of triva: she was born in Brevard [7].
