Schoolhouse Rock!
Schoolhouse Rock!, a series of 46 educational shorts originally conceived by Thomas G. Yohe in 1972, were broadcast on ABC television affiliates until 1986. One additional short was created for the 30th anniversary video release: I'm Gonna Send Your Vote to College.(There's another The Weather Show. How did this relate to the others? Did it not air?)
Note: "The Weather Show" ran into copyright problems - Barnum & Baily objected to airing the spot.
Atlantic Records released an album Schoolhouse Rock Rocks featuring several popular artists singing School House Rock tunes. Tracks included:
- I'm Just a Bill, by Deluxx Folk Implosion
- My Hero, Zero, by the Lemonheads
- The Shot Heard 'Round the World by Ween
- Conjunction Junction, by Better Than Ezra
- Electricity, Electricity, by Goodness
