Kathleen Loves Music

When I got into the cartoon business in 1992 one of my first areas of research was cartoon music. After I finished my analysis of why I thought that Hoyt Curtin was the most underestimated composer/arranger in the business I looked around and found that John Kricfalusi had started the re-discovery (probably the discovery actually) of one wacked out dude, Raymond Scott. (In his search for ‘real’ cartoon scoring for Ren & Stimpy, John licensed several original Scott recordings.)

Anyone who has spent anytime watching Looney Tunes has heard so I’ve put an alternative arrangement of that one from 1938.

I’ll let you do your own searching as to the breadth, quality, and craziness of Scott’s output, but from time to time I’ll put up some other tracks of his. Enjoy.
