The sound is characterized by a brittle, narrow stereo or mono sound with limited dynamic range compared to other recording of the time, and I'd like to know the specifics of the engineering just to confirm what my ears tell me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-44396071493538273572017-01-28T12:53:40.144-08:002017-01-28T12:53:40.144-08:00Curtain did the best job in composing themes for c...Curtain did the best job in composing themes for cartoons by mood, as opposed to composing by scene, which was standard practice for most of the theatrical area, but was rarely used on TV animation -- on "The Flintstones" the Rockenspeil jingle may be the best example of taking a generic Curtain mood piece and then adapting it to fit a specific scene (and scoring by scene was pretty much on its way out before the studios shut down -- even the theatricals from Warners by 1967 often just used Bill Lava pieces that didn't directly connect to the action, while on the East Coast, a lot of Winston Sharples' music for a specific scene in a theatrical cartoon of the 50s later was converted into stock music mood pieces for made-for-TV cartoons).J Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15175515543694122729noreply@blogger.com
