D. J. David B. Spins Comics-Tunes: Jiminy Cricket!

djnew

If you haven’t seen Pinocchio, shame on you! It’s the classic Hollywood story of trying to get a deal with no strings attached. (Strictly the stuff of blue fairies.) Although it’s being remade as Avengers: Age of Ultron, we prefer the Disney version. (Oh wait. They’re both Disney versions. Never mind.) Instead of The Hulk, the green character who steals the show in the original is Jiminy Cricket. The lovable Jiminy acts like Pinocchio’s conscience but you wouldn’t like him when he’s angry.

Plus, Jiminy Cricket sings! Take that, Bruce Banner.

Today we present another track from the classic Dave Brubeck album (last seen here on January 8th of 2013.)

This time, Mr. Brubeck takes on Jiminy’s signature song from the film – a Academy Award-winner! But before we get to the music, here are some wonderful pictures to go with it.
