Theres a 19-second long, unlisted track (#23) on the RECKLESS NIGHTS AND TURKISH TWILIGHTS CD. What is it and why does it sound.familiar-?
It’s a false start by the Raymond Scott Quintette rehearsing Scott’s “Egyptian Barn Dance.” The melody was adapted by Carl Stalling in the opening credits of the 1953 Warner Bros. classic, “Duck Dodgers in the 24-1/2 Century” (which also contains “Powerhouse”). The full RSQ version of “Egyptian Barn Dance” was left off the CD because the master disc could not be located in the Sony.Archives at the time. UPDATE: The complete, original 1930s recording of “Egyptian Barn Dance” was uncovered recently, and is now available as part of the new 2-CD set titled MICROPHONE MUSIC. Details here…
