The core of this 31-song (!) disc is the entirety of the group's sole album, We're the Banana Splits . For all its good-natured, well-produced late-'60s pop, it is too sweet and happy in one dose, like having a banana split for appetizer, lunch, and dessert. Still, those songs do include the well-remembered hit The Tra La La Song , plus some surprisingly raving garage- soul-pop with I'm Gonna Find A Cave and the Wilson Pickett-like Doin' The Banana . The more bubblegummy happy-go-lucky numbers and ballads are harder to bear, but obviously the session cats playing on these tried harder than they had to, putting sitar on the lightly psychedelic In New Orleans and Baroque harpsichord on the uncharacteristically moody Wait Til Tomorrow . The CD also adds eight non-LP bonus tracks, including more typically bouncy lightweight kiddie pop/rock and a boisterous alternate version of The Tra La La Song , but also the rather fetching ballad Pretty Painted Carousel , which sounds a bit like early Peter & Gordon. Actually the best part of the package, though, are the ten tracks from the rare 1967 LP by fellow kiddie TV group The Beagles, who are actually not bad mid-'60s pop/rockers with a Beatles-Merseybeat influence to the songs and harmonies, though the production bears strong American soul and pop influences. THIS ITEM IS A NEW AND UNPLAYED CD. Used items will include condition details for inserts, disc, and jewel case/digi-pak/mini-jacket. NOTE TO POTENTIAL BUYERS: If the tray card, bar code, jewel case, insert, or digi-pak is punched, marked, or cut in any manner, denoting a promotional/review copy, I will state that as part of the item description. Also if an issue is a "music club" edition, that will be noted in the item description. (The below information last updated 3/04/26) NOTE: As handling materials and shipping fees rise, I will honor the stated shipping fee on my older listed items. Shipping on multiple item purchases will be determined by total weight and distance at the current rate. If you have any questions or if you have additional information, especially corrections, to the description, please e-mail me. I particularly enjoy when an artist, band member, or someone who has personal background knowledge of a particular album/artist and offers their insight/information of that artist/recording, which I will include with the description for future listings of that release. As a collector of many years, part of the hobby side for me is to learn about the background of the artists and music that I collect. Hopefully, sharing some of this information in my descriptions will help educate and enlighten your listening experience. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER CURRENTLY LISTED ITEMS AND EBAY STORE: Grooving To Paradise. GENERAL INFORMATION: All CDs come sealed in standard jewel cases and are US releases unless noted otherwise. mini-jackets, digi-paks, and variable (non-standard) packaging will also be noted. Any item that does not come sealed or include an outer sleeve will be placed inside of an outer sleeve at the time it is received by me. All items that do not come sealed in an outer packaging wrap are inspected by me prior to shipping. It is not unusual to find small/tiny imperfections on the play side of the CD disc, especially on European manufactured CDs; these small imperfections do not affect the playback of the disc. Also an unsealed jewel case may show light signs of warehouse/transit storage wear on the outer surface of the jewel case. If an unsealed jewel case is received by me broken, it will be replaced with a new jewel case before shipping; sealed CDs received with minor cracked/damaged jewel cases will be noted as such in the item?s description and will be shipped as received. ABBREVIATIONS: SS or SLD: Still Sealed or Sealed. Short abbreviation that will appear in the title line of my listings. This item is new and unplayed. Also appears in the listing description as Sealed CD or Factory Sealed CD. NEW CD: This item is new and unplayed, but was received from a supplier without being shrink wrapped or cellophane wrapped; more common on imports but also many of the smaller independent US labels do not seal their CDs; some have it both ways (for which I have no prior knowledge of or choice when placing my orders). Other companies use resealable clear outer sleeves which are used on some import and domestic releases. If I receive an item this way it will be shipped as I received it and not opened up. Items received unwrapped are placed inside of a resealable clear outer mylar sleeve at the time they are received. GFC or GF: Gate fold cover, refers to a style of mini-jacket CDs. S/T: Self-Titled AKA: Also Known As ASA: Also Sometimes As 2/1: This denotes that 2 albums are on 1 single CD. RE: Reissue. Variations from the original pressing will be noted when known. REMAST: Remastered. More specific sourcing will follow within the item?s description when available. SSW: Singer-Song Writer. OOP: Out Of Print. MIX: This sometimes appears in my title line and refers to a group's/artist's music having a mix of styles such a rock track with jazz then followed by a straight rock track followed by a psych rock track, etc., as opposed to a blues album with the album's tracks having predominantly one style. XT, XTKS, or #XTKS: Usually in lower case type as part of the title line, denotes bonus tracks on this release (extra track, extra tracks, or the number of extra tracks). ULC, LRC, etc.: Upper Left Corner, Lower Right Corner, etc. used in referencing the area of a defect or blemish to the jewel case or packaging. MULTIPLE ITEM PURCHASERS: A shipping discount will be applied to all multiple item purchases. My automatically generated invoices do not apply discounted shipping (I?m kinda old school). So?. Purchase and pay the full individual shipping amount for each item and I will automatically refund the shipping discount to you once processed for shipping (within 24-hours). US customers whose purchase includes CD(s) along with LP(s) will be shipped in a single package via media mail. Purchases of 3 or more CDs or a box-set will ship via media mail. INTERNATIONAL customers whose purchase includes CD(s) along with LP(s) will be shipped in a single package at the current rate by weight and measurement. I discount the US portion of shipping on multiple item purchases. Issued after your package is posted. A shipping discount only applies if all items purchased ship in a single package. All international packages are shipped using e-Bays International shipping service (very reliable), which provides tracking. Consult their terms of service and coverage if you?re unfamiliar with it. Please e-mail me with any questions you may have. TERMS OF PURCHASE / AUCTION: Buyer pays for POSTAGE & HANDLING: US and INTERNATIONAL shipping information is as of March 3, 2026. Any subsequent changes in shipping will take precedence over the below information. U.S. Shipping: $4.95 shipped via USPS Media Mail for a standard single jewel case or digi-pak. With the recent postal increase on USPS Ground Advantage, continued shipping cost increases have been a big concern in my decision to go with Media Mail. NOTE: All shipping rates on previously listed items (a little cheaper) will be honored for single item purchases. Multi-item purchases will ship at the current rate based on the total weight of your package and distance to travel. Shipping of additional or irregular size items will be determined by weight and distance. All US packages are processed for shipping via eBay and include a tracking number.

INTERNATIONAL Shipping: I ship worldwide via eBay?s International Shipping Service for all purchases. Check their terms of service if you are new to it. Items are shipped in professional corrugated mailers with inside padding. As the US portion of the shipping charge is paid directly to me, I will discount multiple item purchases based on the total cost of postage to eBay?s international shipping center. I am low tech (no automatic formulation), each item is charged full individual shipping amount and upon posting I will refund a portion of the US shipping for each of your items of a multi-item purchase. I believe e-Bay discounts their portion of international shipping by total weight & distance (check e-Bay?s terms of their International shipping service). Multiple item purchases will be shipped at the current rate based on weight and distance in a single package. Tracking is included check and monitor tracking via your purchases folder (not USPS).

As for eBay?s International Shipping Service, I started using it shortly after the service began and with improvements in security, delivery times, convenience, and price, makes it an easy choice.
