Sing It Outdoors
Hard to believe, but this record is one of my most commented upon. It seems that many people grew up hearing bits of the 'Sing It Outdoors' jingle on TV, and when they go searching for it on the internet, they land here at Ernie (Not Bert). I'm just happy to have something that someone is looking for. I first shared this in 2007, and I don't know much more about it now than I did then, except that a lot of people remember that tune. This is John Donnelly & Sons-Sing It Outdoors (No Catalog Number, Mono). Dig that cool green vinyl!

I love this!!!!!! Charming, fresh, and again, such a pronounced harp part! I especially love "The Friendly Beasts." What a great album. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Our local radio station, WTTR in Westminster, has been playing a clip that contains part of "Sing it Outdoors", and it was driving me nuts trying to remember why I knew that song! I did have an inkling that it had something to do with advertising. Now I know! - Meg H.
ReplyDeleteI realize this posting is a number of years old, but I would love to be able to download this album.... when I click the link I get a bunch of usenet junk.
ReplyDeleteThis album is one I have listened to since I was a kid. My grandfather, Ralph Waldo Cummings, produced it and sang on it. I have a copy but it has the Cummings Productions, Inc. label. I assume it is before it went to Donnelly. Then, it got the label for Donnelly Adv. to go out to the clients.
ReplyDeleteWow, great little bit of history there. There's a much newer post of this record with a recent remaster, if you're interested in giving it a listen. Check here (and check the comments for a working link):
