This was originally featured on the back of a 1955 Wheaties box (one of the first "paper records" featured on a cereal box)- it was issued during the first season "THE MICKEY MOUSE CLUB" appeared on ABC. One of its many quarter-hour sponsors was General Mills, the makers of Cheerios and...Wheaties, so this was a direct tie-in to the show {"Hey, Mouseketeers! Now you can hear your favorite Disney characters any time you want...and it's FREE, when you buy Wheaties...!"}.
I believe Pinto Colvig, the original voice of "Goofy", is the vocalist....
