Disneyland Records is the original name of the Walt Disney Company's record company.

The label was established in 1956 under the name Disneyland Records; its first release was A Child's Garden of Verses. The company changed its name to Walt Disney Records in 1989. Most of its output is mainly children's music and recordings, mostly based on (or around) Disney cartoons (it has also produced recordings that do not involve any Disney characters, such as the "Children's Favorites" series). Its repertoire includes both read along records as well as full length albums.

WDL Series

The WDL Series was marketed as a premium line of soundtracks and music from Disney films rather than children's albums. However, many of the albums (e.g. Disney's Merry Christmas Carols) were not derived from Disney films. Prices were advertised at $4.98 each.

• 101 Fantasia (stereo version STER-101), all of the music recorded directly from the movie soundtrack, except for the brief jam session halfway through the film. The Deems Taylor commentary was not included. Taylor, however, did write the text for the accompanying booklet. The only 3-LP set in the group, and as a result, three times more expensive than the usual WDL album.
