talent showcase: mousekadance

This is the first routine the Mouseketeers learned, and it’s the most popular Talent Showcases of the series. It was featured on Monday (083), Tuesday (047), Wednesday (125), and Thursday (004). It is the quintessential clip of the 70′s show. These were not your parent’s Mouseketeers. You can really get a feel for the era from this song.  Can you find which two Disco Mice are not in this number?

This song, “Discovery” was the original theme for the Thursday shows, later changed to “Let’s Discover Discovery Day”. It stayed in the show as a Talent Showcase. Although it’s originally a Thursday number, it actually aired on episode 011, a Monday. Scott gives the introduction wearing his Thursday sweater.
