The Woody Woodpecker Song
Featuring Kay Kyser and His Orchestra

Notes:
  • Production No
  • Used in the 1948 Cartune, "Wet Blanket Policy."
  • The only song ever used in a cartoon short to be nominated for an academy award.
  • Became Woody Woodpecker's theme song beginning in 1948, though the Capitol Records would continue to use the pre 1948 introduction.
  • Released as a novelty record instead of the Capitol childrens' series of records.
  • Not Bozo Approved to my knowledge.  Ever.
