The Danish release of Disney's "The Jungle Book" (1967) with the voices from the Danish version of Disney's adaptation of Kipling's classic. The Danish voices have been selected among familiar names from the stages, from variety shows, and from music, which include Sejr Volmer-Sørensen as narrator, Preben Uglebjerg, Ove Sprogøe, Carl Ottosen, Freddy Albeck, Ole Monty, Ulrik Neumann, Kirsten Rolffes, Svend Asmussen, Ulla 'Sniff' Neumann, and Joachim Clausen in the role of Mowgli.
This copy was part of my parents' record collection, which they had purchased for me and my older brother after watching the Danish version, which premiered Dec. 1968. I actually reacall watching the film at the cinema. Probably not until a later stage as I would have been 3 when it first came out. I recall listening to the album at 6-10 years of age.
