Toon Rock: Three Little Bops (1957)

 We had this up a while ago, but it was bounced due to copyright issues. Let's try this again.

"Three Little Bops" reposits the Three Little Pigs as a swinging jazz trio, with the Big Bad Wolf trying to crash the act. Stan Freberg narrates, and voices the pigs & wolf. Music by Shorty Rogers and friends.


Yeah, we can only present the title card. Bummer, man.

It's too bad Friz Freleng couldn't follow this up, but some of the musicians that backed Rogers on this short followed Freleng as he founded DePatie-Freleng nearly a decade later, and did some of the music for the Ant & The Aardvark.

Rating: A.
