Comments

Released as half of the Disney feature, "Fun and Fancy Free"

From Baruch Weiss : This is another great short but the song "This is too good to be true" makes it worthwhile ,as well as the other songs and the music. I also heared Goofy's famous yell.

I have seen "Bongo" and would like to
