Time For Another Cartoon, Boys and Girls!

Produced in 1960 and released in early 1961, here is The Cat starring in "Cool Cat Blues," produced in New York City by Paramount Cartoon Studios.



This cartoon a takeoff on TV personality Ed Sullivan, was directed by Seymour Kneitel.

Story by Irving Spector

Animation by Irving Spector, Jerry Dvorak, Jack Ehret, and William B. Pattengill

Sets by Robert Owen

Music by Winston Sharples

To me, this was one of Paramount's better early 1960s efforts. The Cat, in this cartoon a private eye who doubles as a jazz pianist, is hired to prevent TV star Ed Solvent from being kidnapped by a rival network.
