Does anyone remember Captain Kangaroo coming out with a series of songs for individual names?
My girlfriend Stephanie nostalged over this recently and I'd like to dig one of the old records or cassettes up for her but have been very unsucsessful. All help welcome :)

Yes, my sister had a record of Captain Kangaroo singing all about her name (Erin). I doubt she still has it but I remember a lot of the words!

OMG, my brother had a Zoom birthday record!
"And so tonight,
when you're in bed,
I'll be singing to YOU
as I ZOOM overhead,
singing Jason, happy birthday,
singing JASON, happy BIRTHDAY,
singing Jason, happy birthday,
to YOOOOOOOUUU!"
Also: "Uhhhhh, what's a kooklechoo?"

I had this album...
The one song that comes to mind is:
CK: What'll we have at's party?
Kids: We'll have ice cream
CK: What'll we have at's party?
Kids: We'll have ice cream
CK: What'll we have at's party?
Kids: We'll have ice cream
CK: Happy birthday,! Your birthday's just begun
Subsequent verses said that we would have cake, presents, etc. at's party.
When my younger brother got engaged, he brought me his fiancee's copy of this album so that I could put it on a CD for him to give her as a wedding present.

It was definitely Captain Kangaroo: my sister (Susan) and I (Tony) both had them: I think my Dad picked them up on a business trip to the US.
