Music for the Work Week


Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse" is the classic music for scenes of industry in cartoons (a hens-laying-eggs assembly line comes immediately to mind) but he had other compositions that were more popular at the time of their introduction.

Today's 10" LP gathers eight of his well-known tracks together as "Raymond Scott's Drawing Room."

Raymond Scott Quintet - Raymond Scott's Drawing Room (Columbia cl 6083)

In An Eighteenth Century Drawing Room
Business Man's Bounce
The Peanut Vendor
