Others from that collection that come to mind are "The Skeleton Dance", "Scarecrow of Romney March", "West of the Wide Missouri" and an interesting version of "Zorro" from Sgt. Garcia's point of view. I could talk Disney music all day and not get tired!

Another great CD to acquire for rarer Disney songs is "Zip-a-dee Doo-da". You can check it out at this link: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000283U/qid=1031324018/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_2/002-7224050-8978451" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/exec/obi dos/ASIN/B00000283U/qid=1031324018/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_2/002-7224050-8978451</a>.

Originally Posted By Jim Epcot, I just followed your link. That looks like a great album. Are the versions of "All the Cats Join In" and "Two Silhouettes" the same that are on the film? By the way, I should let you know that this is LaughingPlace; MousePlanet is another site.
Originally Posted By Epcot4Ever I just noticed that I got my favorite sites confused! Sorry 'bout that. I'm pretty sure that the versions of Cats and Silhouettes are different than those in the film, but they are really close with the same performers.
