Where it came from
Released in 1956 by Peter Pan Records, this 45 RPM single serves as a quintessential example of the mid-century children's record market. Peter Pan Records, a division of Synthetic Plastics Company, carved out a significant niche in the post-war era by producing affordable, brightly colored vinyl discs sold primarily in supermarkets, variety stores, and drugstores rather than traditional music shops. The label was designed to provide parents with inexpensive entertainment, often featuring covers of popular standards re-recorded by house musicians and vocalists to avoid the higher licensing fees of major label hit versions.
The recording features The Playmates, a vocal group that became synonymous with the Peter Pan house sound, supported by the label’s dedicated studio orchestra. These arrangements were crafted to be accessible and engaging for a younger audience, translating adult-oriented pop standards like 'Rock-a-Bye Your Baby With A Dixie Melody' and 'When The Red Red Robin Comes Bob Bob Bobbin' Along' into upbeat, simplified versions. While these records were rarely critical darlings, they were highly successful as functional consumer goods, helping define the childhood auditory experience for the Baby Boomer generation through their ubiquitous presence in family homes.
