A Short Guide to Looney Tunes
It hit me. After watching several hours' worth of Merrie Melodies and Looney Tunes, one can divine how good the cartoon will be by whichever musical director is listed in the credits. To whit:
Bernard Brown, Frank Marsales, or Norman Spencer (1930-36) Overflowing with cuteness; not terribly distinctive.
Carl Stalling (1936-58) Bullseye. The Classic Era.
Milt Franklyn (1954-65) Mixed bag; more workmanlike than good.
Bill Lava (1963-69) Utter dreck.
