    "My Grandfather's Clock" on Dot was by Lawrence Welk! It was the flip of
"Calcutta", one of my childhood faves (unlike a lot of my oldest records, I
still have that one).

    The Major Mudd Show was a gas. He had these invisible termites who would
invade his rocketship singing the Beatles' "I'll Get You" sped up from 33 to
45. The other music I remember from the show was what he read mail to, "Song
of the Nairobi Trio", which coincidentally was mentioned on one of my other
lists today. Ernie Kovacs used to have chimpanzees lip-sync (or whatever) to
that song (still have *that* 45, too)...

  I miss when I was a kid and had a whole bunch of 45's from my sister and I
  would run around the dining room table in circles listening to them on my
Show
  N  Tell record player. I'd just throw the record on without even looking at
  the  label and go through the stack over the course of a Sunday afternoon. I
  remember  Grandfather's Clock on Dot Records, Let's Fall In Love on a
Columbia
  label with  what looked like the Statue of Liberty, So Much In Love from The
  Tymes, among  others.

  I still wish I knew what the outer space music 45 was on Arrow  Records. I
  know the music was used to the Major Mudd kids show in Boston in  the late
60's
  and early 70's. Anyone know about that label? I figure with Mr.  PMJ online,
  he might know.
