Bedknobs and Broomsticks, 1271-USA Garrison, WDP-100A, Buena Vista
Here's a rare Disney record released in 1971 by Disney's Buena Vista distribution arm.
It's a rare one-hour radio special to promote the new Disney film, Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
Angela Lansbury, David Tomlinson, Sam Jaffe, and John Ericson are all credited.
Pete Renaday, billed here as Pete Renoudet, is the narrator; he was a longtime Disney standby actor and narrator who died last year nearly at age 90.
This program was presented in the format of a one-hour radio show special, where stations could add commercials. The story and songs by Richard and Robert Sherman, are included via snippets, along with score elements by Irwin Kostal of Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music fame.
Altogether, it's like a special audio version of this beloved Disney classic, all designed to promote what was then a new movie; Disney had done a similar effort for Mary Poppins seven years earlier and repeated that campaign in 1973 for the rerelease of Poppins.
The LP comes in a cover with a vintage, 1970s-style art cover emphasizing the whimsy and magic.
The back cover tells about the production, the music, and the story. It mentions that there was originally a paper cue sheet so radio stations could see the start/stop of the script to know where the commercial breaks would go; however, that paper is not with this.
Very rare 1970s Disney Vista record!
