Raymond Scott - The Jingle Workshop: Midcentury Musical Miniatures 1951-1965

 

The Jingle Workshop: Midcentury Musical Miniatures 1951-1965 on clear vinyl 2LP!

Two pretty platters of promotional jingles of the strangest flavors!

A smorgasbord of unheared music from the eccentric icon paired with his wife, Dorothy Collins, Mel Tormé and more!

In addition to being a pioneer of early electronic music, Raymond Scott generated hymns to hunger, odes to pudding and pilsner, and crafted carols for countless other products, elevating the form of advertisement to an art. If Zappa had written music for commercials, it's not hard to think his approach would have been similar! This first ever collection contains varied styles in both instrumentation and vocalization and previously unavailable electronic works.

A first-ever collection of Raymond Scott's 1950s-60s TV and radio commercial jingles — with vocalists and announcers, instrumental beds, demos, outtakes, guide tracks, and alternate versions. Transferred directly from master tapes in the Raymond Scott Collection at the Marr Sound Archive.
