Subject
Notes: The Walt Disney Music Company was
incorporated in 1947, which started from an effort to get songs from
Cinderella published and licensed for the Disney Company. This led
to an interesting period, where Jimmy Johnson took on managing the music
publishing that included several songs that were not from a Disney film
or production. WDMC had several hits outside of the films, along
with many flops. The extended story of this interesting period can
be read about in Jimmy Johnson's book, Inside The Whimsy Works.
