Under the direction of Jeff Sanford, the Cartoon Jazz Band has been delighting audiences since 2002. Raymond Scott's music is a part of our DNA, bought in 1941 by Warner Bros. And used to underscore the antics of Daffy and Bugs and more. This music has been covered by numerous tribute bands, and used again and again in commercials, TV shows and modern cartoons, thereby exposing generation after generation to his quirky sensibilities. However, there are few big bands operating today that use Scott's music as the core of their repertoire as Jeff Sanford does here. Album Tracks 1. Carrier Pigeon 2. Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens 3. Girl with the Light Blue Hair 4. Bijou 5. Egyptian Summer 6. I Get the Neck of the Chicken 7. Dancing with Harold Arlen 8. Bird Life in the Bronx 9. Siberian Sleighride 10. Yesterday's Ice Cubes (Are Water Today) 11. Kansas City Stomp 12. Mr. Basie Goes to Washington 13. Barnacle Bill (Bonus Track)
