Are there any compilations of Raymond Scott music?
Yes. One compilation is on Columbia Records (a major label) and is entitled “The Music of Raymond Scott: Reckless Nights and Turkish Twilights”. The catalog # of the CD is CK 53028. This CD has most of the well-known Scott songs and has a very interesting bio of Scott in the 18-page booklet. If your local record store doesn’t have this, they should be able to special order it for you. Preceding this release was a CD from Stash Records entitled “The Raymond Scott Project”. It appears to have mostly the same songs and also features “a terrific booklet of liner notes covering the career of this wonderful … composer”. Available through the Whole Toon Catalog. its catalog # there is STA 543.
