Am I the only person here who thinks that Lorenzo Music would never be allowed to work in mainstream film and television if he were still alive today? (Ditto for Mel Blanc, Jack Mercer, and Paul Frees.)

  I don't know, but you inspired my to read a bit on them. Amazingly talented folk; Music helped create The Bob Newhart Show; Mercer was an animator & writer; Frees wrote songs & scripts, & did ADR work for other actors. It's hard to believe people with so many diverse talents wouldn't find some sort of work.

  Mercer was also a voice actor on Popeye and Joe Oriolo's Felix the Cat cartoons. Come to think of it, Bill Scott of Rocky & Bullwinkle fame would have been 100 this year. (Scott, like Mercer, was a writer and voice actor.) Trivia: I was born the same year that Bill Scott, Joe Oriolo, C Lafayette Hartman, and Clarence Nash died.
