David Butler · 1942 · overland
The 1942 entry, often the fans' favourite, opens with the pair shipwrecked and washed ashore in North Africa. A talking camel, a desert kingdom, a beautiful princess, and a prophecy that her first husband is doomed to die young all conspire against them as they break the fourth wall and sing their way toward Morocco.
- 1The Shipwreck
Their freighter blown to bits, Jeff and Turkey wash ashore on the sands of North Africa with nothing but their wits, such as they are.
- 2The Moroccan Shore
Ashore at last, and promptly sold into trouble by Turkey, who trades his friend away for a square meal.
- 3The Desert
Across the dunes by camel toward a fabled city, the famous song carrying them along.
- 4Marrakesh
At the palace, Jeff is to wed Princess Shalmar, until a prophecy reveals her first husband is doomed to an early death.
