gotta vote for SchoolHouse Rock!
I'll listen to the tape on my way to work as a show of alliance (and to sing along!)

Never heard it - what kind of music is it? Pop? Rock? Techno? (�hudderrrr. . .)

More like Saturday morning cartoon singsong animation from the 70s and early 80s... intentionally catchy tunage to get through an educational message.
(wow, SHR is HARD to explain, it's always been a stardard to which other educational 'programs' were compared to for me!)

It's musical cartoons about educational stuff, like how a bill becomes a law, and how grammar works ("Conjunction junction, what's your function?" is my all-time personal favorite). It's the kind of stuff you'd see on "Sesame Street" now, except at the time it was ground-breaking.

D@mn! My typing is appaling with this half broken front paw . . . only another two weeks, and the plaster will come off. Thank God. No more balcony jumping in the near future I hope!

The sax is the thing.
