It's Cool In The Furnace
Buryl Red and Grace Hawthorne
(1972)
"Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were three young Jewish men exiled in Babylon, friends of Daniel, known for their unwavering faith when they refused to worship King Nebuchadnezzar's giant gold statue, leading them to be thrown into a blazing fiery furnace but miraculously protected by God, appearing unharmed with a fourth divine figure, teaching lessons of courage, faithfulness, and God's deliverance."
I honestly bought this for the cover. Three goofy looking dudes hanging around in a mound of ice and fire.
A children's album thru and thru of pure dreck and the old Bible parable about the power of faith.
The voice of the King sounds like the head elf from a Rankin-Bass holiday special, or Yoda doing a Bill Cosby impression.
Pretty hip beatnik arrangement by Nashville A-team session players... Harold Bradley, Bob Moore, Buddy Harmon and Charlie McCoy to name a few.
