That was fun. Every time I listen to Herb Alpert it reminds me of the Angry Beavers, even though I don't think he did the music for the show.

Damnit, kobayashi, now I have "Tijuana Taxi" going around in my head.

My favorite Hubley films are the ones where they illustrated audio recordings of their children chatting with each other. I remember a great one called Cockaboody, but my Google-fu fails me in coming up with a video; here's another- Windy Day from 1968.

squalor: Here's Cockaboody. My favorite Hubley work is another musical work The Tender Game, with music by Ella Fitzgerald & The Oscar Peterson Trio. That one's never been an FPP, but it's been linked to in a few different threads here on the blue.
