Raymond SCOTT – Toonerville Trolley 1940-1944

Raymond Scott, pianist, composer & arranger was one of America’s most original & inventive musicians, who led a highly popular dance orchestra through the 1940’s.

Scott’s tuneful, jolly music may best be remembered for numerous scores made for cartoon classics from the “Looney Tunes” & “Merrie Melodies” stables.
