Pop Focus: The Singing Brady Bunch!
The Partridge Family wasn't the only singing crew on 1970s TV.
Likely inspired by the record chart success of David Cassidy and Shirley Jones, the Brady Bunch kids also got into the act, releasing several not-as-good-as-the-Partridges LPs.
Not that they were completely terrible. "Time to Change" and "Sunshine Day" are pretty likeable bubblegum pop.
As you'll see from the picture sleeves below, several solo Brady's also issued singles.
And, after the demise of the original Brady Bunch show, most of the cast (Eve "Jan" Plumb couldn't participate due to contractual problems) reconvened for 1976-77 "Brady Bunch Hour" variety show produced by Sid and Marty Krofft for more singing and dancing.
Check out the musical side of the Brady's in the pics and clips below.

Marvel finally settles with Jack Kirby Estate
No details on the arrangement, but Marvel Comics has finally reached a financial settlement with the Jack Kirby Estate over rights to the many characters Kirby co-created - including Captain America, the Avengers, X-Men, Hulk and Fantastic Four.
The U.S. Supreme Court was to consider taking up the case on Monday, but the settlement sidesteps that potential showdown. According to the New York Times:
Marvel said in a statement: “Marvel and the family of Jack Kirby have amicably resolved their legal disputes and are looking forward to advancing their shared goal of honoring Mr. Kirby’s significant role in Marvel’s history.”
Mr. Kirby died in 1994. Disney directed calls to a Marvel spokesman, who declined to provide additional comment. A lawyer for the Kirby family, Marc Toberoff, and one of the litigants, Neal Kirby, Mr. Kirby’s son, did not respond to email queries.
