Tale Spinners for Children was a series of stories and novels adapted for young audiences on vinyl records in the early 1960s. They included a collection of old fairy tales , folklore , literary classics such as Don Quixote Robinson Crusoe fables , with the title role sometimes played by a renowned theatrical actor or actress. (Many of the actors who appeared, however, such as Maggie Smith or Alec McCowen , became more famous for other roles years after the albums were released, and some of the actors, such as Donald Pleasence , who played Don Quixote, or John Wood , who played several villainous roles, were not even identified on the album covers.) The series gave children an exposure to timeless classic stories.
Originally only 30 records were pressed in England and France and sold as Atlas Talespinners under the Atlas Record label, and included an easy to follow story booklet. Within a few years, these records were introduced to the U.S. as Tale Spinners for Children under the United Artists Records label. What was known as the Atlas Theatre Company in England was marketed as the Famous Theatre Company in the United States. The story booklets were not included in the U.S. releases.
UA continued to produce more stories records until the early 1970s, and distribute them in the Canadian[1] [2]
With popular children's record companies like Walt Disney Records already on the market, a host of other record companies followed: Mercury Storyteller series, Telegeneral Let's Pretend , Riverside Wonderland and Pathways of Sound .
