In the Spring of 1974, Disco is still up and coming, and you hear these tunes at your shopping mall as you pick out a pair of funky fresh bell-bottom pants. If you don't remember those days because you had yet to make your entrance into the world, or even one or both of your parents, fear not; this album has you covered!

Little John Records 100 Series 1950

 

Listen Here!

Little John Records was a budget children's label missing exclusively children's records pressed on five-inch 78 rpm records. The entire record lines content consisted entirely of material arranged or written by Pat Ballard, the man who gave the world "Mr. Sandman." The label issued its first 10 records, 101-110. Some copies of release 108 had an alternate version of "The Lollipop Bear," which had the title "Poor Lollipop Bear" and had lyrics that contrasted The Lollipop Bear's original generous nature with one who refused to share and ended up ill. In 1951 the label released 10 more releases, 201-210, and in 1952 a Christmas series, X-1-10. Pat Ballard had a thing about fire safety with these children's records; he managed to work it into one of the Christmas sides. The Christmas series has been up on YouTube for almost a decade now and can be viewed there.
