La Dolce Henke - The Mad Musical World Of Mel Henke

Warner Brothers 1472 scarce late '62 STEREO first press space age lounge stereo ping pong with sound effects. From spaceagepop.com:

...In 1955, he joined the television department at Disney, where he composed most of their commercials and for a few television series, most notably , Disneyland, the first incarnation of Walt Disney's long-running series. He also became a partner at TV Spots, Inc., a production house that specialized in commercials. Unlike many musicians who dismissed commercial work as hack work, Henke took to the format immediately, and he was soon experimenting, adding sound effects and snatches of dialogue along with musical passages. He and graphic artist Eyvind Earle collaborated on numerous trailers for Hollywood movies, including "West Side Story."

He released a few albums in the early 1960s that applied this approach to current hits, standards, and original compositions. The most famous of these is La Dolce Henke, which mixes jazzy compositions with sound effects (mostly simulated by musical instruments) and voice-overs to create miniature sonic dramas, like a double-entendre skit where a girl objects to her boyfriend's sporty driving--or is it his sporty moves on her? Dynamic Adventures in Sound is less tongue-in-cheek and more cartoonish, very much along the lines of Ray Martin's The Sight of Sound.

A swinging cat with some crazy mixed-up wry-fidelity way-out concepts, dig?
