  1. I had this LP as a kid, and adored it, and I have been desperate to get a high quality rip of it since the days of Napster!

    This LP ROCKS from stem to stern!

  2. I have the album that preceded this one, DANNY KAYE TELLS STORIES FROM THE BROTHERS GRIMM, which was given to me among a pile of others that included the HAPPY TIME albums I mentioned previously, by a former neighbour of ours.

  3. Is that the gatefold double LP? That one needs to be ripped and posted as well. Do you have the ability to do that? I sure don't.

  4. My favorite track is "Master of All Masters." Reminds me of today's demands for "politically correct" speech!

  5. I just found this and I am SO excited! I grew up listening to this...my parents still have the albums, but I am so happy to be able to have an mp3 file of it! Thanks!
