Schoolhouse Rock still alive and kicking! In the mid-70s, ABC TV aired these short cartoons, which taught a generation about government, history, grammar, science, and math.

Then came the obligatory tribute album, Schoolhouse Rock! Rocks based on the Emmy Award-winning animated TV series. It was released by Atlantic Records in 1996 and contains 15 tracks, including the original "Schoolhouse Rocky" theme and covers of 14 songs from the series, performed by popular alternative music artists of the 90's.

I remember there was an official video for Blind Melon's version of "Three Is A Magic Number". I don't remember if this was the official video or not.......but either way......here's two videos for from this compilation for your listening and viewing pleasure.
