@@luislaplume8261 - Hanna-Barbera did, in fact, license some of Capitol's library music for its cartoons on TV back in the 1950s and 1960s, so for that studio to use some of Capitol's space-age music tunes for The Jetsons - if they ever considered doing so - would not have been surprising.

Not a chans that this type of music would be written today.It really belongs to the athmosphere and conditions back then..in the U.S.A . I'm a swede and I really like this...especially the "bridge" ...Thanks LittleMiss...
Yes! It puts me in mind of a hot summer day, my dad and mom in the front seat of our sky blue and white '56 Ford station wagon while I, in the back seat, sit under the window-mounted "swamp cooler" (a sort of pre-historic air conditioner), rolling down a two-lane highway while this song plays on the radio.
If you're referring to the segment at 0:59, it appears David Rose recycled this part from his earlier composition 'Piccadilly' (1961) for his 1964/1967 recording of 'Gay Spirits'. /watch?v=DNLTOlRXnB8&t=0m47s This musical phrase wasn't included in the original recording of 'Gay Spirits' (1947)
How sad it is that our youth will never know about this type of music that us baby boomers grew up with. So much better then the trash on the radio today. I am trying to introduce my sons to this music and so far they are at least listening to it.
A man and woman are grandly dancing to this music and OH LOOK! The Chevrolets are here! Showcase of cars of the FUTURE! And then the couple looks at the AMAZING push button phones OF THE FUTURE!
AHHGHGHGHHH I FOUND IT!! This is where Luke Vibert aka Wagon christ lifted one of my FAVOURITE SAMPLES OF ALL TIME!! The intro to this forms the melodic basis of Toomorrow. I always loved the vibe of that sample and wished to find the source, today I finally did, and it's glorious.
This selection first came to attention when it was used on Bonanza, long before Little House. Whenever I hear it, I see Michael Landon galloping that beautiful paint horse across the vistas of Lake Tahoe. Thanks for posting.
This is the music I listen to while I enjoy my wonderous life in the year 2020, with sonic sound dishwashers, fully electric house appliances and plastic walls and glass.
Great writing , great playing . I heard this music as a child . I didn't know then if I liked it or not . But it worked it's spell and lifted me anyway . Those days must have been better to produce music like that .
Barbara H. Oddly enough, I looked it up, and it turns out David Rose was one of the composers for Little House On The Prairie, so he may well be on to something.
When Laura was riding her beloved horse Bunny. David Rose recycled some of his music for use as musical director of Bonanza, LTOTP, & Highway To Heaven. First husband of actress Judy Garland, 2nd husband of actress Martha Raye, grandfather of singer) songwriter Samantha James, composed song "The Stripper." 👍🏽💯😊
I see this as real wrighters of great music who understands what it takes to influence the world what great music is about because it leaves something that would be forever generation ahead.
BRAVO!!! Thank You for this!!! I heard a short snip-it of this piece on NPR last year. NPR said they had NO info on it (so WHY did they USE it!). I just found out what it was yesterday from someone at the "Retro Cocktail Hour". It's been driving me CRAZY for over a year!!!!! Subscribing.....NOW!!!!
Today's generation will never understand the pure and innocent intention of the word (GAY) and this track certainly reflects it's true meaning as in being in a happy mood!!!
@@AlexDeLarge1 With all due respect! Is your vocabulary weak? Or perhaps book like a dictionary never came across your mind and want to engage into a silly argument?
To alger3041. . . . Yes, the first time I heard the version to which you're referring (the "original". . . .a diamond in the rough) I was blown away by how --dare I say-- underdeveloped it was compared to this later version, which is the polished gem Rose eventually uncovered. Masterful, this piece.
Nowadays you're suspected of being gay by the way you tie your damn shoes! We're so corrupted it's hopeless. Bing Crosby actually recorded song called "Gay Love" in the '30's. Shockingly it was about a girl and boy who had a wonderful romance.
This reminds me of 1950s Las Vegas, when it was still small and more intimate; folks dressed up for dinner and a show; service was still great; the emphasis was on adult entertainment instead of Disneyland, and you never felt like a mere "head of cattle". Suave, sophisticated... elegant. Shame THAT Vegas is gone for good.
Ren : another day of some business, I see Stimpy : *happily jumping up and down on couch* It's so bright and nice Today! Ren : now stop it with your tomfoolery stimpy, we have a day ahead of us Don't ask what Episode this is from, I made a Ren and stimpy scenario in my head
To David Fick: I cannot reply directly as it's been 4 years, so I'm writing my own reply.It is always a matter of how we individually hear any piece of music.You prefer this later version; I prefer the original, which I've known and enjoyed for years.What else could be said?Neither of us are either right or wrong. Let's just agree to disagree.
+alger3041 +David Fick Regarding alger3041's earlier reply -- ' I can't imagine what could have happened here.' -- this arrangement seems to have been based on a later arrangement heard on the OST of the 1964 MGM movie "Quick, Before It Melts" scored by David Rose. Identical segments from the OST recording aren't heard in the film, but a slower portion of the segment heard at 1:00, plus several variations are heard throughout the film. The OST version was later re-recorded for the 1967 Capitol album 'Holiday for Strings', which is undoubtedly the version heard here. Incidentally, the 1947 version you prefer (MGM 30012-A) actually isn't the first version -- it was first (?) performed on his CBS radio program 'Holiday for Strings' in April, 1946 and released as a piano score in May, 1946 (I haven't heard this version yet). In 1946, David Rose claimed 'Gay Spirits' was the result of him playing 'Holiday for Strings' backwards!
The piano version was probably never recorded, but I own a copy of it, and can tell you that it is basically the version that I prefer, being virtually identical except for some additional bars of introduction. By the way, David Rose wrought some changes on his "Holiday for Strings" as well, and here too, I greatly prefer the original version (as subsequently recorded on MGM, not the original RCA Victor presentation). I have piano scores of many light music selections of this nature. Regarding David Rose, in the piano version of the "Manhattan Square Dance," the solo bassoon episode that appears just before the reprise is omitted, even though it is perfectly playable on the piano.
To borbetomagus: I have now revisited this, and must say that it is a totally different composition except for the use of the melody in the middle section (first time through) which now becomes the main idea. The pizzicato main idea of the other is totally missing here, and the whole ends abruptly as though, as you suggest, it is a fragment from a film track. Whatever may have happened, the other version makes vastly more sense to me.
Thanks for your reply. Any way you'd care posting an audio performance of it? Perhaps, it just wasn't fully fleshed out at this point -- especially, since I think David Rose supposedly wrote one composition a week for his program. I just wonder if someone has the original April, 1946 audio performance of 'Gay Spirits' from David Rose's radio program "Holiday for Strings" on a website dedicated to old radio programs. I'd imagine you might have quite a few of the Guild 'The Golden Age of Light Music' CDs. Currently 135 albums(!) Do you know of any books giving a history of this type of music? About the only one I've seen that gives an overview of composers appears to be 'Conductors and Composers of Popular Orchestral Music' by Reuben and Naomi Musiker.
@@LittleMissLounge hmm, is there a more specific genre for it? For example, Charlie Parker played Bebop which is a form of jazz. I want to listen to more music like this.
"Gay" has been used to describe same-gender attraction since the early 20th century. And it's not a "cancerous political term", it's what a diverse group of people use to describe themselves and there's nothing wrong with it.
Love this music, i get whisked away to a happier world kinda like the Jetsons whenever i hear this song ^_^

This could be in a Jetsons TV cartoon episode. I remember when the Jetson were new in 1962. The time of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair.
