Hey, it’s easy to sit around and watch a Disney flick from the past couple of decades and say how the studio has sold out, seemingly focusing more on having a sappy clutch of hit songs and tons of fast food merchandising for their films instead of focusing more on the quality of the features themselves, but back in 1979 there was Mickey Mouse Disco.
I remember this damned commercial vividly and begged my mom to get it for me. Man…$9.98 for the LP AND two bonus albums? Where ya gonna get a deal like that anymore? However, I finally got my copy at Woolworth’s and was more than happy. For Disney stuff at the time, this one wasn’t too bad, and a couple tracks actually still stand up, but it’s the commercial that still seals the deal for me. At over two minutes long, you know everything you need here. Ah, the good old days…
