Totally Minnie - Minnie's 60th Anniversary Special (1988)
This companion special to Mickey Mouse's Birthday was released near the same time. Many forget that when it's Mickey Mouse's birthday, it's also Minnie's birthday too. This was the first time Minnie was showcased in a starring role ever. It's based on the 1986 album of the same name. Updating the animated shorts characters with contemporary music was nothing new. It had happened in the late 1970's with Disco. That album brought voice actress Russi Taylor to the role of Minnie Mouse. She was the first long term actress in the role. Prior to this, Minnie was voiced by whoever was available.
The special included several popular stars of the era including Suzanne Somers and Elton John.
This special demonstrates just how important Disney and Mickey Mouse was to American pop culture in 1988. It also shows how the past and Walt Disney's legacy was still very much revered and trying to be updated to the current times. This special only aired once and was never released to VHS or DVD but it should be. In hopes of generating interest in it again, we present it here for your rediscovery.
