The Penguin Parade

In 1938 most of the Looney Tunes popular characters either hadn't been created, were on the verge of being created, or were in their infancy. Through out the 1930's the shorts relied heavily upon music because they had only a few strong characters.

The Penguin Parade is story about the grand opening of a nightclub called The Club Iceberg. All the local penguins show up to drink and dance to jazz music. First up we have the penguin's version of Bing Crosby crooning "When My Dreamboat Comes Home" before his backup trio belts out a hot "scat" chorus. Fats Walrus coolly riffs out his hot piano solo.

The music track is as important as the animation in The Penguin Parade. Songwriter Byron Gay appropriately composed the words and music - while Carl Stalling's handiwork burns up the soundtrack.
Unfornately, I wasn't able to find a print of this short without the "Cartoon Network" logo on it.
