Everyone says they just used old Jonny Quest music from Hoyt Curtin, which they did, but MANY new tracks were created for these shows also, and the credited music director on these shows is not Hoyt Curtin but Ted Nichols. I have the Jonny Quest Project CD's, but would love to have the new tracks made for the shows listed above also.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-43646236605901357632011-03-19T09:09:14.147-07:002011-03-19T09:09:14.147-07:00I've always absolutely LOVED the background / ...I've always absolutely LOVED the background / incidental music in the early Huck, Yogi, Pixie & Dixie cartoons!

Even Big Cartoon Database contributor "bmode" mentioned the name. I only wish I knew which cues he did..sigh...I saw the name connected on ASCAP, though, most important, to the 1956 Gumby short "Little Lost Pony", which has a couple of Geordie Hormel [ZR-47] and Spencer Moore [L-80] cues, and a number I already cna ID has Harry Bluestone and Emil Cadkin [THEIRS dominate,] and that Phil Green "Piano" cue, PG-296, at the Production Music [when you get to the SITCOM LIBRARY, 50s and 60s, look for #34], LAST CHANCE SALOON. Henry Russell MAY have ghostwritten some of those by Hormel and Moore...sigh..<br /><br />SteveSChttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001249396142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-1715669964451143732011-01-05T19:18:00.867-08:002011-01-05T19:18:00.867-08:00Glad to find another TC cue, TC-74 SOMBRE aka OPPR...Glad to find another TC cue, TC-74 SOMBRE aka OPPRESIVE DEATH by David Rose, credited to Loose and Seely...of course, as we know, contractually not just did Mr.Rose sign away the rights and royalties but the credits, as well, a common practice..like Mel Blanc recieving exclusive WB cartoon voice credit, though for a rather different reason, but still showing how credit giving practices in Hollywood and New York of the day operated [not sure about internationally]. BTW I'm pretty sure those "Native American" cues so often used mentioned above ARE from "X" or "M", and are by Hormel, Moore, or Seely-Loose, or from Langlois [aka now Cinemusic] and thus from Jack Shaindlin. I doubt that it's from Phil Green or any of the others [the "Chief Crazy Coyote" stock music.] In the dim hope that some collection in follow-up to that 1995 Pic-nic Basket set, or better ALL of those are finally licensed on a production music site [dim hope] THEN the questions qould be answered..:)Steve C.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-87425712864978468932010-12-29T16:11:52.698-08:002010-12-29T16:11:52.698-08:00"English Main Title" was also prominentl..."English Main Title" was also prominently used in the 1962 "BIOGRAPHY" profile of George Bernard Shaw {Mike Wallace, narrator}: Wolper Productions used several Capitol Hi-Q cues in that one, as well as others in the series.bgraumanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07481033911573623806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-40227290537570309142010-12-27T20:19:55.466-08:002010-12-27T20:19:55.466-08:00Yowp, after searching I found a video of Space Bea...Yowp, after searching I found a video of Space Bear, and you're right, though it's about later, at 4:00 , it's the first part of that cue "they forget where they put their cars"...very short part of that cue.Steve C.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-75463999884898717762010-12-27T19:25:50.039-08:002010-12-27T19:25:50.039-08:00It certainly is.

He loved doing those muted trumpet blares after a flurry of notes, and he occasionally wrote short bridges like that (eg. the <em>Mad Rush</em> beds).

Fits the princess and prince story. I hate when they have two or more stories simiarly themed-"Love Bugged Bear", the one with handwalking,or something in a "Boo-Boo looks on" short scene, where he deduces that Yogi's gone off the beam [though he "always winds up on it" as that theme song goes] , where I had heard the flutey open bars that may be Shaindlin's "Happy Boy", from what I've heard, or it's "Woodwind Capers", this Clarence Wheeler piece, which in fact may have been something Clarence ghostwrote [but we'll never know] for Jack Shaindlin. "Love Bugged Bear", has, and in fact I pointed it out, the pre-Cindy ugly wig bear, with the driving Yogi madly in love. Everything that I've mentioned about who may have writen what here and before this post of course is speculation..:)Steve C.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-85158007481430661132010-12-26T22:44:41.609-08:002010-12-26T22:44:41.609-08:00Errol, I hope the day comes where I get an e-mail ...Errol, I hope the day comes where I get an e-mail from someone who tells me they have copies the Langlois cues I'm looking for, or some original 'L' or 'X' series material they're willing to send to me, but it appears unlikely.
