Tom and Jerry's Musical Mayhem



Yet Another Single Disc Tom & Jerry DVD Release Only Aimed For Family Members
Yea, don't waist your money getting this because it's another family friendly Tom & Jerry DVD with only 1 disc and only 7 cartoons. The single disc Looney Tunes DVDs from early last year (which are "The Best of Bugs Bunny" and "Looney Tunes Unleashed") were really bad since they had only 3 cartoons, this one is only the 2nd weakest DVD release. It will contain:

*The Cat Concerto (1950)
*Saturday Evening Puss (1950)
*Tom and Jerry in the Hollywood Bowl (1950)
*Johann Mouse (1953, last Academy Award Winner)
*Carmen Get It! (1962, Gene Deitch era)
*Rock N' Rodent (1967, Chuck Jones era)
*DJ Jerry (from ep. 24 of Tom & Jerry Tales)

As you will notice it has another new-to-DVD Gene Deitch Tom & Jerry cartoon and at least only one cartoon from an episode of Tom & Jerry Tales. But I would stay away from this and just wait for the second volume of Tom & Jerry Golden Collection instead.

A Delightful Collection Of Tom And Jerry Musical Episodes.
Remember how a cartoon always came with a movie when you went to a theater? And do you remember how good some of those cartoons were? Well they were made for a very diverse audience and would have everyone laughing, all the way from serious movie critics right down to young kids. They were just great. Well, I now have a young boy (4 1/2) and his mother feeds him some of the modern cartoons for entertainment. He likes them. I, however, got the idea of giving him exposure to some of the cartoons of my childhood. They're readily available and are downright cheap. I pick them up off the Wal-Mart five-dollar rack. My latest acquisition was a disc called "Tom and Jerry's Musical Mayhem." It's a wonderful DVD!

"Musical Mayhem" is a Tom and Jerry collection of cartoons having to do with music, in one way or another. The music ranges anywhere from Classical to Dance-jazz to early Hip-Hop. It's hilarious, and makes for pleasant listening too. My boy likes music and just loves this...

Great intro to classical music.
This is a great introduction to classical music.I loved this as a child,my children loved it, and now my grandchildren will get the chance.
