They used to show it once in a blue moon in the early morning in the early 1950s. I loved it but my mother thought it unseemly fare for children. Fuck the 1950s.

Found it! For once the YouTube algorithm didn't make me wade through 4 pages of bubble gum rock.

That'd be great. Not so many DUers are old enough to remember Spike Jones, although I am. Even fewer will remember what your post refers to. You can find the information on Wikipedia, but it would be good if you would explain it for us, since you posted this.

My folks recognized the old stuff from WWII, and there it was in the 1950s.
