Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids (1973) | Animation Soundtrack 

🗣🎤 Sitting in jammies, watching cartoons on Saturday morn, eating cereal 😋 It’s the ONLY day we awoke on our own.

It was nothing like eating a bowl of Cocoa Puffs while looking at Fat Albert and The Cosby Kids before you watched Soul Train, and going outside to play.

So many great songs, life was so good back then 😩👌🏽

I have to admit, Bill Cosby is/was a genius for creating this cartoon, I appreciate it/that much more as an adult...

Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids were even big down here in Australia!! And they played them on a Saturday Morning, too !!

I am here crying on my computer! This soundtrack takes me back to my early childhood!

I was born in 75 dang I felt like I knew fat Albert ...but he was here before me 😂😂😂😂💙💙💙💙💙much love to Bill Cosby

I’m 17 and know the theme song word for word. I used to watch fat albert all the time. Who remembers the Christmas episode lol?

I love this cartoon and all those funky songs!

I know this song word for word.....😂 😂 😂 And I swear, the real Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids were my uncle and his friends....😂 😂 😂

Had no clue that they actually made an album for the cartoon! Thanks for sharing.

This is beautiful it really bring back some good memories .

This is so 🔥🔥🔥👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💯💯👏🏿💯👏🏿

The "Friends" Song Always Made My Eyes Water When I Heard It✨

I loved this cartoon !!!

Fun blast from the past!

“Beggin Benny” “We’re All Together” “At The Hospital” 🔥🔥🔥 IN THAT ORDER

Couldn't wait until Saturday morning and during the week when I got in from school to watch Fat Albert and the Cosby kids. I learned a lot and with the music of that time was just another acception to the rule of how black kids could be educated watching a cartoon with great theme music 🎵🎶🎶 to bob ya head too 4ReAL!

Love Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids music! Grew up on it❤❤

Much Appreciation Such an encouraging program

That's really cool that they have a soundtrack for the original Fat Albert show. The guy who sang the songs from the show and who's pictured on the back of the album cover is Mike Gray. He was a Broadway actor who sang gospel music and other stuff, and he did a great job of singing the songs from the show. Sadly, he passed away from a heart attack in 1988. Considering how great his singing was was, he should have done a whole lot more. RIP Mike Gray...

Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Eating cereal while reading the box, watching cartoons and then going outside to play!

Wow I have to work this Saturday, and found this here. I couldn't imagine as a kid that I would be listening to this 55 years later at work. Such memories of Saturday mornings. Yes, eating a bowl of cereal and then going out in the sun to play all day.

The bass lines on this soundtrack are fantastic.

I was lucky to find this LP sealed at a very decent price. I didn’t even know it existed when I found it. Thanks for putting this up.

Born in '73 & can *STILL GET DOWN* to the Fat Albert Theme 😃✊🏽

Bill was always for the kids, I got the whole collection In my S550 Benz that I watch. I was born in 71 so this is my era 💯

This where I came to stay I don't hear about farty b or no Nicki whoraj or nothing stupid. This is where I put myself into this place. Thank you Philly's zone reel black and fat Albert.

No fool like a fool playing hookie 😂 this is so cheesy and dope at the same time

"Friends" is my favorite

Amazingly I remember some of these songs!👏🏾🎶🎵💖

Much Gratitude

One day a few of us neighborhood kids got the idea to have a junkyard Olympics, inspired by the Fat Albert show. Brings back good memories.

6:05 This reminds me back when I was a kid when I and my family and had to move I cried a lot because I would miss my school friends I wasn't much of a talker when I and my siblings played outside with their friends I wasn't good at communicating with them because of my autism disability and I couldn't express my words to anyone except my family and my teachers. Gosh, I miss those days 😢

Nobody loves a bully. I love that song!!!

DOPE! The vinyl version ain't cheap.

Hey, hey, hey, it's at Albert! Loved that show as a kid.

I love the “ School Day” transition music, “Du Du Du-du Du-du Du!”

Thank you for sharing. I didn't know they had an album.The songs ( Albert, and Russell) were my favorite parts of the show.

If you gave this a thumbs down, you didn't learn a thing or two from Bill while not having any fun with Albert and the gang!!!!! Saturday mornings in the 70s/80s was awesome!

I miss the old time

Great instrument playing, good guitar playing.

Greatest PHD project ever.

Your LP plays smoothly. I bought mine from Ebay it skips like crazy.

Their other Episode Songs like "Whole lot of Fish in the Sea", "Listen", "Suede Simpson", and "Dope is for Dopes" should've been in this Album... Why didn't they make a Vol.2, and included the rest of the Songs that wasn't in this one😭🤦‍♂️But Underrated Album tho❤

If your here for "The Hero" break, here you go! @5:05!

Dancing in my pajamas with a bowl of Captain Crunch soggy cereal😁✨👍

0:01 "Early to riiiiise.. It's time to get paid" 🔥

That's the way the Fat Albert theme song is supposed to sound. In the key of E major.

45years ago my favorite

They remind me of Fatback Band

YES!!!!

1973 O my what a "Good Time"

Whoa this is definitely a rare find. I always wanted to know who was the lead singer. Looking at the back of the album. He could've played the role of FAT ALBERT

Sweet memories! Please give credit to the vocalists and the amazing band; add them to your description. Who are they?

Awesome

I'm so sorry for the folks who had to wait until Saturday to watch their favorite cartoon. Different from having channels with varieties nowadays

Nostalgia.

0:00 vibe.

This album is very hard to find!

Last cartoon of the Saturday morning cartoons before Isis and Shazam!

I'm almost convinced the backing band on these tracks are The Crusaders.

I'd love to know if there are any clear version of the incidental music used on the show as well.

Give the Band some credit! Put the info. in the description please.

These have got to be the funkiest kids songs EVER! Classic! Thank you Was there a recording with the instrumental in the episodes?

Watching this with my family.🤗 While us kids ate "Corn Flakes," 👎🏾 "Post Toasties," 👎🏾or "Quisp" & or "Captain Crunch", 😋 when we could afford it. 🤗🤗🤗 Good times

What a coincidence I just happen to start back watching Fat Albert cartoon this past Saturday and you post the soundtrack the next day. I have the DVD set.

Nah they was jammin in the junkyard

hey hey hey ....

The "We're All Together" song sounded better on the show

Breakbeat at 5:13

omg

When cartoons were good on a Saturday morning. #facts

Yes so true. N. Y.

What's not to like?

I MISS Saturday cartoons. If there's two things that's changed the culture of the youngest generations for the worst it's kids on cell phones and the absence of Saturday cartoons.

Who was this band? They really jammed...i wished the old "soap & water" was on here

Who's the artist singing tho?

7:57

No "Suede Simpson"?

No-body, but NO- BODY likes a bul- lay! I liked the toon until they stopped the songs.

The good years of 'clean fun' and no worries of our children being murdered aka killed aka gunned down

I wonder if their is any date rape drugs in fat alberts burger?🤔

I'm buggin! I need to know who the musicians were. It's one of my biggest mysteries.
