Y'all... I knew this recording existed and I thought I might never hear it in my lifetime, and Warner Music just (randomly?) posted it on YouTube. This recording was sent out as a promotional vinyl and read-along book right before OTGW aired for the first time in 2014.
More notes on the release from Patrick McHale and Andy Merrill below.

Would You Paint A Pumpkin Smile On My Face, And Call Me A Happy Disgrace?: I still love this Halloween special with its unclaimed Jack-o'-Lantern weeping forlorn tear-seeds atop the hill overlooking town, the kindly trio of rag dolls taking it upon themselves to deliver him from his plight and into the hands of an equally-despondent boy. This arrived two years after the dolls' wonderfully trippy musical feature film, debuting in prime time on Halloween night of 1979 and airing regularly thereafter into the early '90s, the special and the film having since descended into the video vortex, The Raggedies becoming more akin to collectible antiques than popular toys.
Andy Merrill was on a Weird Al fan podcast as a special guest and mentioned Jellystone season three. He was really enthusiastic about the series and implied that Zorak will be accompanying Brak in his upcoming appearance.
My secret agenda is to try to drum up enough interest in Space Ghost before Coast to Coast turns 30 next year so there's enough demand that maybe something cool will happen
and enough interest in the Moxy show that maybe more of it will be found because Cartoon Network's early original programing is shockingly underrated despite being as influential as it is
