So this is the guy who inflicted It's a Small World to the global audience. A very hard song to get out of your head once you go on the Small World ride.

The Sherman brothers were a large part of the success of Disney in its heyday. The high technology of the current era is no substitute for the hard work and massive talent of those older days.
If you haven't seen it, the movie Saving Mr Banks does a great job of representing the Sherman brothers at work on Mary Poppins. Spellbinding.

Sadly, he may very well have spent his final years in constant despondence and nausea over Disney becoming the ideologically warped "woke" fiasco that it is now.
