Ludwig Von Drake

In a recent post, I highlighted a terrific box set, "Music of Disney: Legacy in Song".

Ludwig Von Drake on iTunes

I downloaded it, and when I heard the whole thing, I realized I must have had this at some point, as I recognized every song.
It is a very "wacky" record, with what seems like a lot of improvisation.
The songs on this album are:

• "I'm Ludwig Von Drake"
• "The Spectrum Song"
• "Green with Envy Blues"
• "It Gets You"
• "Von Drake Variations on 'The Blue Danube"
• "Professor Von Drake Discourses On Sound Recording and Takes You On an Adventure In an Echo Chamber"

If you want a fun, entertaining and off-beat listen, check it out for yourself.

Oh, and who is Ludwig Von Drake? More on him in a future post!
