...Kangaroo (Columbia). If Gibbon were alive, he would probably blame the Decline of the West on Captain Kangaroo. Culture snobs notwithstanding, the fact is that the gentle captain makes small fry happy, and these two bouncy collections of songs, capers and "riddle-a-diddles" are calculated to make them happier still...
