A half hour cartoon featuring the creatures of Gaither's Pond with a moral that we should share our resources. The animation is garish in the extreme but the music is the real fun. Jessy Dixon plays frogman and he comes up with some wild gospel. There's loads of rich, corny, laid back country all with zingy close harmony, all written and produced by Benjy Gaither. It's wacky but it was almost incomprehensible to my seven year old who definitely didn't want to watch it again. So although it may have potential cult status I wouldn't rate it for children.
