I recently wrote a blog about Rock Me Amadeus, a wacky song and how much I love them; it got my mind going about how many of those songs I could recall and realized there are MILLIONS!
This got me thinking about a new Viewfinder music section; well, I'll think about that, hum . . .
So, any way, the memory of one of those tunes was brought back when today I realized Disco Duck by Rick Dees and His Cast of Idiots received a gold record on Wednesday, October 6, 1976, EXACTLY fifty years ago today! The song became only the fourth single to be certified platinum in December of 1976.

Disco Duckita settles nicely in the wacky category, if ever a song could! The song is from an album of the same name. The songs are pretty much the same and if you're looking for mindless, no content but wonderful feeling DISCO. Then, you're in heaven!
There are two songs on the album that stand out: Disc-Orilla and He Ate Too Many Jelly Donuts. The latter parodies "Pelvis" and "Waistland"!
