Times They Change

I took off from the city again this weekend (madness in it!) and am once again hiding out at my parents' place. I keep finding books and drawings from my youth, and just now the vintage French 101 Dalmatians record I had that I would attempt to decipher on my Fisher Price record player.

Now, when I was young I wasn't so into Disney's The Jungle Book. My little brother however was obsessed. He watched, as he called it, "The Goggy Show" endlessly. As an adult I have to say I was actually surprised by how much I like the aesthetic of the film now. The colour schemes, the dialogue, the overall style. Very 1967. And the music is great. So jazzy. So not-Disney. It's funny that I had to grow up to appreciate this one.
