Surprisingly, to me, there are many audio works using the word elephant in some form or other. Most of the ones I have found are not about elephants but rather someone using the word for whatever reason. Shown below are a sampling of such items. Following the images are several playable audio files.	Elephant related audio media includes phonograph records, compact disks, cassette tapes, and digital files. There is a lot of audio which is associated with other media, mainly films and videos.

CASSETTE: Asa's Potty Learning

"Asa the baby elephant has a potty chair in the bathroom. Even though it's his favorite color and he understands what it's for, he doesn't like it." And so forth from the cover. Psychologist Dr. gail C. Feldman developed this tape as a way to ease the anxieties of toilet training. Produced and distributed by Speaking Of Health, Albuquerque, NM. [ed. They could have chosen any animal but an elephant has tremendous appeal for children.]

COMPACT DISK: Elephant Riders
Described on ebay® in 1999 as a promo CD for the band Clutch'. I did not win the auction so have no idea what is on the CD.

COMPACT DISK: Elephant Rest Home
Sleeve for CD "Elephant rest Home" by Dieselhed. Again, I have no idea what is on it but elephant is in the title so here it is.

COMPACT DISK: Memory Is An Elephant
Sleeve for CD "Memory Is An Elephant" by Tin Hat Trio. Again, I have no idea what is on it but elephant is in the title and there is a tiny elephant image in the center. .

COMPACT DISK: Forget
CD for album "Forget" by Elephant Ride. Kind of amusing that a group named 'Elephant Ride' would title an album 'Forget'. None of the songs have to do with elephants ... only the group's name.
