    Cool Re: Cartoon Band !!

    Actually, I recall one episode of "The Jetsons" in which George Jetson is depicted as a drummer!

    The second episode of the original (1962-'63) season, "A Date with Jet Screamer," has George grousing about Judy's infatuation with Jet Screamer, he of "Solar Swivel" fame, and asking "whatever happened to good old-fashioned music?" (The camera then cuts to George's drum kit, which was a futuristic depiction of what could be a five-piece DW maple kit!)

    To summarize the plot, George secretly replaces Judy's entry in a song-writing contest ("Oh Jet Screamer-screamer-screamer you're my dreamer-dreamer-dreamer...") with Elroy's secret code to a fellow Space Scout ("Eep, opp, ork, ah-ah" means "Meet me tonight.") in an effort to keep her from winning...

    ...and of course Judy's entry wins! The remainder of the episode depicts George's efforts to chaperone Judy and the rock star, which climaxes when he bribes the singer's drummer to take the night off as the band prepares for Jet Screamer's concert. Imagine George's reaction when, as Jet announces the drummer, Judy suddenly blurts out "DADDY!"

    George then tears into a drum solo to open Jet Screamer's premiere of the prize-winning song "Eep Opp Ork Ah-ah (And That Means I Love You.") I honestly think the style of this sequence was copied by more than a few music videos in the early days of MTV!

    While Elroy protests the use of his secret code--and Jane wonders "what's going o-o-on!"--it's a happy ending as George and Judy sing the song once more at home (watch how George copies Jet Screamer's dramatic spinning entry!) ends.

    And, of course, "The Jetsons" theme song is a loud, lively, percussion-driven jazz tune (actually, two tunes mashed together. If you listen closely to the opening sequence, notice how there's a "jump" between the opening fanfare and the drum break, where the picture "shatters" into triangles.)

    You'd never guess I loved this episode to remember it in such detail 45 years later!
    keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

    Hey Stevo, there is a good lady bassist from your area. I believed she plays for Jeff Beck but can't remember her name. I am not even sure if she is grown up, looks like she is a teenage girl.
