(Continued from previous post)... But I still enjoy watching Wanda Kay dance, and I still enjoy the music. "Love and Let Love" is my favorite Hardy Boys song, and I still feel it should've become at least as big a hit as "Sugar Sugar" was for The Archies.
So maybe I wouldn't buy the series on DVD (and maybe I would), but I'd love to get a legit CD of their two albums, "Here Come The Hardy Boys" and "Wheels" (I have them on vinyl already).
I was afraid of this... I was a BIG fan of this show when I was young, but as an adult I dreaded seeing it again, and sure enough, for the most part I'm thinking "I used to LIKE this?". I'd forgotten how annoying Chubby's voice was - my mind obviously blanked that memory out for my own protection :) And Wanda Kay's wasn't much better, which is especially disappointing since she, and Tara from "The Herculoids", were my first crushes on cartoon babes... (continued)
When i was a kid i used to love to watch the reruns of the Hardy Boys Cartoon it used to come on everyday on WPIX in New York City back in the 1970's.
This song Love and let love i always remembered as a child, thank you for the memories.
"Namby Pamby" is my FAVORITE Hardy Boys song!!! But, no, I don't have it. All I've got...except for the one that is in crappy condition...is on here right now. Thanks for asking, though
Respectfully, I have to disagree with you, SkeebWilcox, about the choice of "Love and Let Love" as the debut single--my guess is that the powers that be deliberately made that choice to avoid the bubblegum stigma that plagued the Archies.
Well, skeeb; what can I tell you? Maybe the sound quality of the song was much better forty years ago. Btw: for those who remember the "Archie" cartoons produced by Filmation, for CBS, around this same time? You might have recognized Chubby and Frank's voices as being done by the same artist who handled Archie, himself. That was Dalles McKennon, who also used to do "Buzz Buzzard" for the Woody Woodpecker cartoons!
Say that's right! Dallas McKennon did voice work for Woody Woodpecker! He also made a guest appearance on an epsiode of Space Academy in 1977 as Johnny Sunseed, who was Commander Gampu's brother (Gampu was played by Jonathan Harris [1914-2002], who also worked on several other Filmation shows such as My Favorite Martians and Uncle Croc's Block).
Sink Or Swim was the b side of this single...

Heh, I find it amusing how they made lots of these popular song artist cartoons back in the 70's-80's.

My favorite Hardy Boys song ever!!! Isn't that Shaun Cassidy amazing? j/k
I do LOOOVE this song. It's the first rock tune I ever grooved to back in the 60's.
The odd thing is that unlike most releases, it's the LAST song on the back of the record instead of the first on the front.
