slholzer 11th Dec 2017		This record and all its international versions has to go down as perhaps the most insensitive ever made. It does not speak well for the era in which it was made that "Slap 'Er Down Agin Paw" was not only not rejected by the masses but sold very well. I can't imagine it would do at all well today, given the current climate, except, of course, among those benighted few who want to live in the long-gone past. The fact that it was paired with a distinctly anti-fat song only adds to the shame of it.
