[Dixielandjazz] Tom and Jerry Music

[Tom Belmessieri]

The music from "The Little Rascals" was of equal caliber.  In fact, there is 
a band from the Netherlands called the Beau Hunks who have gotten their 
hands on the old music charts from that series written by Leroy Shields.  
They have a few CD's out.  It takes you back.
