Stu Brown's Twisted Toons Vol 2- The Music Of Carl Stalling, Scott Bradley And More

Stu Brown’s Twisted Toons takes you on an eye-popping ride through the wacky world of cartoon music, including zany melodies, themes and complete cartoon scores by Carl Stalling (Looney Tunes) Scott Bradley (Tom and Jerry), Raymond Scott and more, all performed with relish, virtuosity and humour by a super-tight septet of A-list jazz musicians. Stu formed his Twisted Toons project in 2008 to celebrate 100 years since the birth of little known bandleader, composer and inventor, Raymond Scott, whose wacky ‘cartoon jazz’ featured in many of the Looney Tunes cartoons from the 1940’s onwards. The band's performances of Scott's manic, offbeat compositions, such as “Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals” and "Square Dance For Eight Egyptian Mummies” proved to be immensely popular with audiences of all ages and back- grounds, from jazz fans to general music lovers, and film and animation fans to families with young children, and have played to packed crowds at many of the U.K.’s leading jazz festivals . "Twisted Tunes – The Music of Raymond Scott", was one of Mojo magazine’s top 10 jazz albums of 2009.
