Hoyt Curtain was a world class composer and arranger. He just happened to fall in to the animation business. I can only imagine if a mind like his had stumbled into film scoring. Musicians loved/feared playing his charts. Millions of people watching these shows had no idea about the depth and intricacy of these scores. Beautiful music can happen in the most unexpected places.

Hoyt knew his super-talented, regular performers and what they could do, and they knew what he wanted and how to give it. Most intricate music (and other art) is very difficult, almost impossible, to exactly recreate the way originally performed and recorded. Example, popular music stars, despite sometimes huge efforts and huge talents, often can't do a live performance that sounds like their studio track. The re-do can be great in a different way, if it's well done, or it can be awful.
From that first drum roll I knew what was coming on next and would hurry to finish whatever chore I was doing! 62 years old and not gonna lie - Race Bannon still makes my heart, well, race! LOL!
No cartoon ever topped Johnny Quest on my list. It wasn't on Saturdays when I was a kid, but it was there every day after school. Love the music! My favorite episode was the Robot Spy. The one that scared me the most, the Invisible Monster. Hearing that sound that it made still sends shivers up my spine!
Invisible Monster gave me nightmares for almost two years as a boy. Late at night, If I heard a strange noise, it was the first thing on my mind. I've had acute hearing since then. Seldom can anyone sneak up on me. That's how well done that episode was done.
One of the BEST animation soundtracks ever made. Hoyt Curtin was a creative genius! This sounds fantastic on my Stereo system! Thank you for sharing this Wonderful Soundtrack!
Hands-down, this soundtrack is pure gold. Growing up on JQ Classic, listening to the tracks without the dialog, ESPECIALLY the awesome action cues, sends shivers down my spine every time.
It was really creating some of these action cues if they were reused and rewritten in the range for many different mystery and and scary movie and of course there's a classic original in this soundtrack that was modified for another film that was later used in Young Frankenstein and I think we all know the cut. They crack me up when I heard it and then there's also the startled hamster is in here as well. There's also about five cuts that are used in rap songs today!
I think today's music critics should take a listen to this and reevaluate Hoyt Curtin's musical legacy. He wasn't just a composer for cartoons, he was a real jazz impresario as well.🎷🎶
It's rare when everything just seems to work so well in a TV series or film that one can't imagine it being successful in any other way, and JONNY QUEST was one of those all too infrequent instances of this sort of serendipity. From the character designs to the over all look of the show to the music, there's little one can argue should be improved upon. As a kid growing up in the '60s this was one of my must-see shows, and when it moved syndication and appeared on Saturday mornings via an American station that was difficult to access from Ottawa, I'd spend time fiddling with the rabbit ears on our old black and white Admiral TV (sometimes even attaching bits of wire to the antennas in the hope of improving the reception) and sit watching it through an avalanche of electronic snow, nonetheless enthralled in spite of the poor reception. It amazes that after all these years there hasn't been a live-action version of the show, either as a TV series or a film. There was a rumour some years back of Steven Spielberg possibly making a JONNY QUEST film, and I imagine had that happened if might have been good. Alas, nothing ever came of that. I take solace in the fact that the originals are still available to watch, remaining as captivating to me now as they were nearly six decades ago.
WOW! WOW! WOW! I didn't know that this was available at all! I'm seven years old again, sitting with my brothers and sister, having the time of our lives! Dad loved this show, too (Mom sat on the other side of the living room, reading. She always did that).
Brilliant, little acknowledged until after his death. First realised the depth of Hoyt's music years ago on the excellent doc on his music/ Jonny Quest, (2000s). Loved the bit about the " impossible trombones " riff on Jonny theme ! Unsung jazz and incidental music artist ! Thanks
what are we talking about here!? this just happens to be one of the best reasons to be an American in America... it's this Johnny Quest soundtrack! the music of your life! all of us who even came here remember what it was like to have fun...lots and lots of laughs and good fun all around, I'm thankful to have experienced this show when it first came on ABC Friday nights .... I'm a true believer in the quest.
If you guys are hearing shades of Star Trek in there every once in awhile from the original series soundtrack, remember Johnny quest 26 episodes 1964 to 1965 Star Trek from your 1967 plenty of time to reap the benefits of the musical library I believe some of these cuts were directly put in to the pilot episode because they hadn't yet written full scores or chosen composers yet. Okay I'm not talking about the composer of the Star Trek theme that's a separate issue.
Hoyt Curtin was DA BOMB!!! listening to these 'Quest cues brings back so many memories. I LOVE the jazzy big band sound of the show. Wasn't just Jonny Quest. Curtin was at top of his game for all of Hanna-Barbera's ABC TV primetime shows from early 60s. The Flintstones, Top Cat and The Jetsons (check out end credits).
The best music of any cartoon ever written. Period. These were the best Jazz artists of the era and Hoyt was the best arranger and writer. The music was so integral to the cartoon it is impossible to imagine it without it.
We all agree that this is the greatest cartoon and one of the greatest shows ever, but I think we need to give some much due credit to the person who put this together. Not only is it all of Hoyt Curtain's awesome music from the show, but you can skip to any particular song by just clicking the time stamp in the description. Excellent work!
The only song missing on this is when General Fong wakes up and yells at his men / when Dr Quest and Race talk about whether Yetis are real and Quest calls its an eerie night.
*NO! NO REMAKE!!!* Netflix or whomever will just mess it up with their woke garbage. Jonny will be made gay with Haji as is "love interest" and if they don't make Dr. Quest and Race gay, they'll race-or-gender swap them and make them lesbians or "non-binary" or some shit like that. They love to take classic characters and stories and twist them up like that. 😑
@@grimscraggletag6799 grim you are so right on the money!!! These days they will take perfection and turn it into puke!!! Deranged minds are what they have become and I'm afraid there may be no turning back. 😔
Agreed. I've always loved the opening theme-it's been my ringtone from day one, lol, but this is the first time I'm hearing all of Curtin's other contributions collected like this.

Favorite action cartoon, of mine as a kid, and that music was totally awesome in the 1960's... And is still far better than today's goofy stuff! 👍👍 10k💖& 🌟
Still get the chills ! This was indeed an incredible series. The music along with exciting story lines made the show a success...Did I mention the music ! WOW ! ! !
Still watch these once in a while, Jonny Quest was my favorite Saturday morning (reruns) cartoon ever. Watched these in the early to mid-70s all the time!!!! Sometimes, they were on during the week too. Hoyt Curtain was fantastic, such rich and musical scoring. All those cats were first call studio and film guys.
Fred Flintstone turns into "Jack Torrence" and chased Uncle Giggles and his cronies with that big meat cutter once he realized his inheritance that he thought he would receive if he stayed in that haunted house turned out to be a joke.
Wow! I had no idea that this existed. I'll probably miss out on it because I'm sure it won't be long before this CD set will be completely sold out [and resold on ebay at outrageous prices] but it's nice to know that the great music for Jonny Quest finally did get a world class release. This one track 57:07 is one of the most striking & exciting of the series. Used memorably in THE ROBOT SPY when Dr Zin's mechanical monster smashed it's way through a solid concrete wall.
I started first grade in 1968, so I was catching this syndicated in my early primary-school years. {My acquaintance was thankfully before it started being cut to ribbons to remove the violence and its implications. I am no fan of violence, but seeng QUEST as an adult, I don't find anything too awful or challenging in it -- after all, our kids face things like the reality of school shootings and terrorist attacks; in my day neither of those things were thinkable. So I don't mind the cartoon spy violence of QUEST. The violence of the real world NOW is far more objectinable.} But when I was a little boy, this was like "James Bond for kids -- plus monsters", and so "who could ask for more?" JONNY QUEST was My Jam. I loved it. The fact that the score sounded as if it belonged with "grownup movies" helped quite a bit. JONNY QUEST might have been too violent or spooky for a lot of kids (and I was a nut for DARK SHADOWS from the beginning, age 4, so 'spooky for a lot of kids' didn't quite apply to me!), but I was sold from the beginning of my acquaintance with it.
100% with you on your post 👍 ! Dark Shadows, loved Jonny, just right for me as a Gen X/boom, late 1960's. The Invaders, The Prisoner, Ultraman... and I'm a " Chick" ! 😁🤣😲😲😉😊Outliers Rule !
OMG .... I won my day !! I was searching it for LONG years... I don´t believe tha I found. thank you so much for this post Wolv3, You are the king. Greetings from Brazil.
Bill and Joe did not skimp when it came to music in their shows. Without realizing it, Hoyt Curtin turned me on to big band music from early age. All their primetime shows, The Flintstones, Top Cat, The Jetson and Jonny Quest had rockin' theme music.
Great to see Ted Nichols getting his screen credit. He did not in the original series. Nichols and Hoyt Curtin were writing partners for HB beginning in '64. This was their first collaboration. I took a class in film scoring with Mr. Nichols n '79 while in college. I did not get to meet Hoyt Curtin but TN talked about him a lot. He also informed us as to some of the musicians were on the sessions. The flute solos were played by Buddy Collete, the trombone solos by Frank Rosolino and the lead trumpet work was by Bud Brisbois. They were really proud of the jazz flavored scores they wrote, as were Hanna/Barbera. Nichols brother is Roger Nichols, who wrote some big hits for The Carpenters along with lyrics by Paul Williams. They worked together for about ten years. But as H and B began to be less involved in the actual production, Curtin/Nichols eventually left. Both of them became music ministers later on in life.
This is what I love about youtube...You're lucky to have been so close to this...I hope you pursued a career in music composition and did well...Good health and freedom to you and yours...
Ted Nichols created some of the most memorable underscores in cartoon history of his own: Space Ghost, Shazzan, Herculoids, Birdman & Galaxy Trio, Fantastic four, Penelope Pitstop, Dastardly & Muttley, Arabian knights, Waky races and of course his only work we ever got in full release, Scooby-Doo, where are you. Someone should do a full interview while he's still with us
When Jonny Quest was shown by the BBC here in Britain in the 60s, these themes were exotic and fascinating to the teenage me, seeming almost too inventive and classy for kid's TV. Along the way, Curtin sprinkled quotes from Khachaturian and Sibelius- probably others too-displaying an eclectic music knowledge beyond his preference for jazz. This is a style 'of its time' and a magic carpet back to those golden days.
@@dontthinkso8533 It has a fantastic theme song, admittedly--but can you honestly pick out a memorable piece of music within the shows themselves? I can't.
@@Carthaginian60 This is an update version, from the updated JQ cartoon that came later on. Powerful stuff yo. Warning: Must play at good levels to get the one two punch this cut imbues.
I remember when a boy of 7 age watch this series in channel 13 in argentina wow all themes area dream,action,comedy and adventure all in one serie great hoyt curtis for these masterpiece
There’s one really terrific scene in The Flintstones, A Haunted House is Not a Home, where Hanna & Barbera did a “cross-over”, using a tune from Jonny Quest to add drama to Fred flipping out and chasing Uncle Giggles and his servants with a giant meat clever. We never did learn if he caught them. Hoyt Curtain’s music was indispensable to the Hanna-Barbera cartoons.
@@nsnopper “…Yeah, well I’m something off a kook myself….!” Great line voiced by Alan Reed that blends so perfectly with Hoyt Curtain’s driving beat…stayed with me for decades!
I'm a zoomer and my dad had a bunch of these shows on DVD. I watched them when I was younger and they all were awesome, I liked gatchaman/battle of the planets in particular.
Thank you boomerang for showing me so many cool and interesting shows from yonder. It was almost like having old school Saturday morning cartoons. Loved the cuts and sequences too. Super trippy and so much effort into one channel. I’ll never forget you.
At about 1:49.00,music that indicates that something's ready to fall out the of sky to pounce on you,something's coming out of somewhere to hunt you down,or someone's about to get blown up,the only other show I heard this was the introduction to the Herculoids' The Pod Creatures.
Also "Itty Bitty Fred" near the end of the episode when after being tiny for days he starts to regain his normal size (note the sound effect that came from The Invisible Monster episode of Jonny Quest)...on the Ed Sullivan show.
This music would later be used across all of Hanna Barbera's 60's cartoon lineup. Everything from Space Ghost to the later episodes of The Flintstones used tracks from the Johny Quest soundtrack.
Love this music! Hanna Barbera music had a lot of Jazz in it! Us 60’s kids had it good! A lot of this background music was evident in Flintstones all the way to Hurculoids! I can see why Composers samples this! Johnny Quest Theme still the baddest!
Dude ok I nave got to watch jonny growing up and I just kinda stumble on it cause I watched venture bros. And found the show on tubi. It's everything I would have loved as a kid. I wish I would have grown up with something like this.
Yup. I could be wrong....but they used the Jonny Quest soundtracks on the Flintstones more than they did with the other Hanna Barbera cartoons that were released in 1964 (correct me if I'm wrong)...of course that all changed in 1965 with the release of cartoons such as Atom Ant, Secret Squirrel and Sinbad Jr..
:)...Awesome upload ...Hoyt was such an extraordinary composer of these complex jazz rhythms I was 5 when this came out...To a little boy this was awe inspiring...It seemed so in the future... edit; I was going to upload the track times and titles to all the songs and you've already done it...This is a work of love, right?...:)...~knowing smile~...Amazing job with the clarity too...
1968 was a transition in soundtrack as the recycled Jonny Quest music began to give way to the soundtracks that would be used heavily in teenage detective cartoons such as Scooby Doo a year later as well as other HB cartoons that came on in 1969 and well into the 1970s (although cartoons such as The Harlem Globetrotters, Josie & The Pussycats, The Funky Phantom and Superfriends occasionally used some of the Jonny Quest soundtracks).
It was also used in The House That Fred Built and The Treasure of Sierra Madrock. The very beginning of that music used to scare the s#*t out of me as a 6-year old! Lol. Same with the Plodding Monster music, very creepy!
@ The House That Fred Built when Fred bought an old dilapidated shack and rebuilt it for his mother-in-law to move in. As they were moving the house to Fred's backyard, the house goes rolling down a steep hill with Fred and Barney holding on for dear life. That's when the music kicks in. But they jump off just in time as the house goes flying over a cliff! The Sierra Matrock episode was when the Flintstones and Rubbles stop in an old mining town looking for gold. They eventually find some and two outlaws try to buy it from them. But Fred and Barney refuse and the outlaws try to kill them by trapping them in a cave with a giant bolder. Cue the music. I just saw those two episodes yesterday and last week!

Curtin was at top of his game for all of Hanna-Barbera's ABC TV primetime shows from early 60s. The Flintstones, Top Cat and The Jetsons (check out end credits).
The best music of any cartoon ever written. Period. These were the best Jazz artists of the era and Hoyt was the best arranger and writer. The music was so integral to the cartoon it is impossible to imagine it without it.
We all agree that this is the greatest cartoon and one of the greatest shows ever, but I think we need to give some much due credit to the person who put this together. Not only is it all of Hoyt Curtain's awesome music from the show, but you can skip to any particular song by just clicking the time stamp in the description. Excellent work!
One of the best animation and sountracks in the histori..From.Chile 🇨🇱👏👏👏👏 24 04 2022
O'kay, now I'm hyped. It doesn't get any better than this.
The only song missing on this is when General Fong wakes up and yells at his men / when Dr Quest and Race talk about whether Yetis are real and Quest calls its an eerie night.
So so badass. With all the remakes these days I'm surprised they haven't made a live action movie. I can imagine Netflix making a streaming series.
*NO! NO REMAKE!!!* Netflix or whomever will just mess it up with their woke garbage. Jonny will be made gay with Haji as is "love interest" and if they don't make Dr. Quest and Race gay, they'll race-or-gender swap them and make them lesbians or "non-binary" or some shit like that.
They love to take classic characters and stories and twist them up like that. 😑
@@grimscraggletag6799 1:11:48 i still enjoy it. What about you?
@@grimscraggletag6799 grim you are so right on the money!!! These days they will take perfection and turn it into puke!!! Deranged minds are what they have become and I'm afraid there may be no turning back. 😔
I can’t get enough of Hoyt’s jazz flute arrangements.
Agreed. I've always loved the opening theme-it's been my ringtone from day one, lol, but this is the first time I'm hearing all of Curtin's other contributions collected like this.

Favorite action cartoon, of mine as a kid, and that music was totally awesome in the 1960's... And is still far better than today's goofy stuff! 👍👍 10k💖& 🌟
Thanks for posting this.. I always thought the music made an already great show that much better
Still get the chills ! This was indeed an incredible series. The music along with exciting story lines made the show a success...Did I mention the music ! WOW ! ! !
Still watch these once in a while, Jonny Quest was my favorite Saturday morning (reruns) cartoon ever. Watched these in the early to mid-70s all the time!!!! Sometimes, they were on during the week too. Hoyt Curtain was fantastic, such rich and musical scoring. All those cats were first call studio and film guys.
AMAZING!!! All the tunes are a masterpiece if their own and made in the early 1960s before i was born.
I... may... faint.
Beautiful. I'm grateful to find this just when I'm exhibiting the original series to my children.
This is a wonderful compilation of various styles of music that went into making this show as special as it was
The greatest music soundtrack for an animated series EVER.
6:16 was my favorite jam when I saw this as a kid!
Fred Flintstone turns into "Jack Torrence" and chased Uncle Giggles and his cronies with that big meat cutter once he realized his inheritance that he thought he would receive if he stayed in that haunted house turned out to be a joke.
@@3912James just saw that episode a week ago.
🎼🎺🥁🎶🎵👍🏿
@@seasonedveteran3517 2:07:27 fun,right?
Wow! I had no idea that this existed. I'll probably miss out on it because I'm sure it won't be long before this CD set will be completely sold out [and resold on ebay at outrageous prices] but it's nice to know that the great music for Jonny Quest finally did get a world class release.
This one track 57:07 is one of the most striking & exciting of the series. Used memorably in THE ROBOT SPY when Dr Zin's mechanical monster smashed it's way through a solid concrete wall.
The visuals immediately return upon hearing that awesome JQ score.
I started first grade in 1968, so I was catching this syndicated in my early primary-school years. {My acquaintance was thankfully before it started being cut to ribbons to remove the violence and its implications. I am no fan of violence, but seeng QUEST as an adult, I don't find anything too awful or challenging in it -- after all, our kids face things like the reality of school shootings and terrorist attacks; in my day neither of those things were thinkable. So I don't mind the cartoon spy violence of QUEST. The violence of the real world NOW is far more objectinable.}
But when I was a little boy, this was like "James Bond for kids -- plus monsters", and so "who could ask for more?" JONNY QUEST was My Jam. I loved it.
The fact that the score sounded as if it belonged with "grownup movies" helped quite a bit. JONNY QUEST might have been too violent or spooky for a lot of kids (and I was a nut for DARK SHADOWS from the beginning, age 4, so 'spooky for a lot of kids' didn't quite apply to me!), but I was sold from the beginning of my acquaintance with it.
Excellent
Eric Eubanks - the blueray release is uncut and original as first aired. Definitely a collectors item.
Good to know. Thanx. Sadly I don’t have a Blu player. But!... I do have the censored released. And just ordered this CD soundtrack!
100% with you on your post 👍 ! Dark Shadows, loved Jonny, just right for me as a Gen X/boom, late 1960's. The Invaders, The Prisoner, Ultraman... and I'm a " Chick" ! 😁🤣😲😲😉😊Outliers Rule !
The dangers of an injured predator and how to take out an injured dangerous predator with a Double Tap was a good lesson that Johnny quest taught.
6:16 By far my favorite. Still hum that tune to this day when thinking about classic Jonny Quest
Barney: SIC'EM FRED....SIC'EM!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
OMG .... I won my day !! I was searching it for LONG years... I don´t believe tha I found. thank you so much for this post Wolv3, You are the king. Greetings from Brazil.
I remember coming home from 1st grade and this would come on and pbj and a glass of milk and the adventures in the back yard would begin
Bill and Joe did not skimp when it came to music in their shows. Without realizing it, Hoyt Curtin turned me on to big band music from early age. All their primetime shows, The Flintstones, Top Cat, The Jetson and Jonny Quest had rockin' theme music.
Great to see Ted Nichols getting his screen credit. He did not in the original series. Nichols and Hoyt Curtin were writing partners for HB beginning in '64. This was their first collaboration. I took a class in film scoring with Mr. Nichols n '79 while in college. I did not get to meet Hoyt Curtin but TN talked about him a lot. He also informed us as to some of the musicians were on the sessions. The flute solos were played by Buddy Collete, the trombone solos by Frank Rosolino and the lead trumpet work was by Bud Brisbois. They were really proud of the jazz flavored scores they wrote, as were Hanna/Barbera. Nichols brother is Roger Nichols, who wrote some big hits for The Carpenters along with lyrics by Paul Williams. They worked together for about ten years. But as H and B began to be less involved in the actual production, Curtin/Nichols eventually left. Both of them became music ministers later on in life.
Very cool history, thanks!
This is what I love about youtube...You're lucky to have been so close to this...I hope you pursued a career in music composition and did well...Good health and freedom to you and yours...
Ted Nichols created some of the most memorable underscores in cartoon history of his own: Space Ghost, Shazzan, Herculoids, Birdman & Galaxy Trio, Fantastic four, Penelope Pitstop, Dastardly & Muttley, Arabian knights, Waky races and of course his only work we ever got in full release, Scooby-Doo, where are you. Someone should do a full interview while he's still with us
@@godbluffvdggppl
Simply the Best cartoon/ soundtrack. 70'$ childhood ... priceless.
Eerie, exotic, heroic & menacing.
When Jonny Quest was shown by the BBC here in Britain in the 60s, these themes were exotic and fascinating to the teenage me, seeming almost too inventive and classy for kid's TV. Along the way, Curtin sprinkled quotes from Khachaturian and Sibelius- probably others too-displaying an eclectic music knowledge beyond his preference for jazz. This is a style 'of its time' and a magic carpet back to those golden days.
Well said!! It IS a magic carpet. I usually describe it as a time machine. I can smell the smells and feel that old gray carpet we had as a kid....
This gave music and instruments meaning of creating emotions thru adventure. I'm listening
Margaret Smith I tip my hat to you. Thanks for putting this up. Been looking for this forever.
BEST. TV. THEME. EVER!
Can you imagine the music from ANY cartoon soundtrack now (not talking about the themes, of course) becoming as memorable as these pieces?
these fl studio quantized soundtracks dont hold a candle to live band stuff like this
family guy has a ton of unironically great pieces but also
>family guy
teen titans, for sure! Not m choosing!!!!!!!
@@dontthinkso8533 It has a fantastic theme song, admittedly--but can you honestly pick out a memorable piece of music within the shows themselves? I can't.
@@Carthaginian60 This is an update version, from the updated JQ cartoon that came later on. Powerful stuff yo. Warning: Must play at good levels to get the one two punch this cut imbues.
The bass guitar sounds so amazing!
Bought the DVD of the series. Never gets old!!
Jonny Quest started the Hanna Barbera super hero/spy/science fiction craze of the mid to late 60s.
This was great! There were two versions of the beginning and ending themes, early and late in the series.
I remember when a boy of 7 age watch this series in channel 13 in argentina wow all themes area dream,action,comedy and adventure all in one serie great hoyt curtis for these masterpiece
1:17:17 was the most hyped jam for me when I watched this on CN as a kid
2:13:18 As A Kid, That Blob Monster With The One Eye Scared The Crap Out Of Me As A Kid On Johnny Quest, This Music Played. in The Background.
There’s one really terrific scene in The Flintstones, A Haunted House is Not a Home, where Hanna & Barbera did a “cross-over”, using a tune from Jonny Quest to add drama to Fred flipping out and chasing Uncle Giggles and his servants with a giant meat clever. We never did learn if he caught them. Hoyt Curtain’s music was indispensable to the Hanna-Barbera cartoons.
1964-1965 was the year the Hanna Barbera cartoons began to shift over to the spy, "British Invasion" and science fiction craze.
6:16 is the cue
@@historybuff66 Correct. Violent Drum with Brass Travel. Your comment prompted me to listen to it again. 👍👍
@@nsnopper “…Yeah, well I’m something off a kook myself….!” Great line voiced by Alan Reed that blends so perfectly with Hoyt Curtain’s driving beat…stayed with me for decades!
😂 that episode was one of few latter Flintstones episodes I liked. Doesn’t Rudy Giuliani look a bit like Uncle Giggles 😂😂😂😂
I never noticed as a kid but man, you can really see where spy music took inspiration from composers like Stravinsky and Khachaturian at times
Especially Rites of Spring style !!
Jonny Quest and Speed Racer from the 60s were and are my go to cartoons. Also liked Battle of the Planets
I'm a zoomer and my dad had a bunch of these shows on DVD. I watched them when I was younger and they all were awesome, I liked gatchaman/battle of the planets in particular.
Those slow, lazy horns at 6:46 slay me everytime.
Thank you boomerang for showing me so many cool and interesting shows from yonder. It was almost like having old school Saturday morning cartoons. Loved the cuts and sequences too. Super trippy and so much effort into one channel. I’ll never forget you.
At about 1:49.00,music that indicates that something's ready to fall out the of sky to pounce on you,something's coming out of somewhere to hunt you down,or someone's about to get blown up,the only other show I heard this was the introduction to the Herculoids' The Pod Creatures.
Best cartoon ever. Best music to a cartoon ever.
I'm working on some timestamps. I like "Swinging Jazz Chase" at 1:03:05. Good for those who need a soundtrack for running errands in the car, etc.
That one has always been my favorite too.
Nice delay on the organ (?). This stuff was state of the art! Could pull some great samples out of this for looping jams!
What happened with those timestamps!?
@@jimgarrett2655 original poster did them. Check description.
@@psmyth i love you
17:08- this was also used in the Flintstones episode: "The Long, Long, Long Weekend"
Also aired in 1970.
Also "Itty Bitty Fred" near the end of the episode when after being tiny for days he starts to regain his normal size (note the sound effect that came from The Invisible Monster episode of Jonny Quest)...on the Ed Sullivan show.
Love how they used horns and percussions
It was also used in the Atom Ant episode "Ramblin' Robot." In fact, that music cue plays when Junior's robot, Delbert, begins his rampage.
My all time favorite cartoon I would still watch it today and I am sixty years old
Hoyt Curtin created the Jonny Quest soundtrack, as well as Battle of the Planets and the Superfriends themes! The dude knew his music!
Wow. Incredible compositions. thank you so much for this.. currently reading some classic COMICO JQ comics and this is the perfect background music 🎶😎
Jazz bigband was still holding on as a popular style of music during this time in late 60s. Sure can hear it in the main theme.
THE BEST ANIMATED SOUNDTRACK EVER
This music would later be used across all of Hanna Barbera's 60's cartoon lineup. Everything from Space Ghost to the later episodes of The Flintstones used tracks from the Johny Quest soundtrack.
Thanx a million my life just got richer
Grew up watching this!
At 1:42:55This was also in episodes of Magilla Gorilla,Space Ghost & The Harlem Globetrotters.
Great quality.
Brilliant and thank you!
Once upon a time when a team of genius gather to create an animated cartoon...
Love this music! Hanna Barbera music had a lot of Jazz in it! Us 60’s kids had it good! A lot of this background music was evident in Flintstones all the way to Hurculoids! I can see why Composers samples this! Johnny Quest Theme still the baddest!
The music in this series was so epic for what amounted to a kids cartoon.
I love the brass sound. Groovy!
Dude ok I nave got to watch jonny growing up and I just kinda stumble on it cause I watched venture bros. And found the show on tubi. It's everything I would have loved as a kid. I wish I would have grown up with something like this.
This was absolutely one of the greatest compositions of Music ever created 🎸
Hoyt Curtin played this music on the fifth season of the Flintstones in 1964 the same year Jonny Quest premiered.
Yup. I could be wrong....but they used the Jonny Quest soundtracks on the Flintstones more than they did with the other Hanna Barbera cartoons that were released in 1964 (correct me if I'm wrong)...of course that all changed in 1965 with the release of cartoons such as Atom Ant, Secret Squirrel and Sinbad Jr..
The song at 17:17 gives me chills.😱😱😱
Mummy steps to beats horror
This was the best cartoon
at 34:00, this one definitely worked its way into a couple of other cartoons, which makes me happy. Such a fun tune; this soundtrack is amazing.
:)...Awesome upload ...Hoyt was such an extraordinary composer of these complex jazz rhythms I was 5 when this came out...To a little boy this was awe inspiring...It seemed so in the future... edit; I was going to upload the track times and titles to all the songs and you've already done it...This is a work of love, right?...:)...~knowing smile~...Amazing job with the clarity too...
1968 was a transition in soundtrack as the recycled Jonny Quest music began to give way to the soundtracks that would be used heavily in teenage detective cartoons such as Scooby Doo a year later as well as other HB cartoons that came on in 1969 and well into the 1970s (although cartoons such as The Harlem Globetrotters, Josie & The Pussycats, The Funky Phantom and Superfriends occasionally used some of the Jonny Quest soundtracks).

@@TVLagoBogota43UHF 1966
@@elisahuberman3408 shown during the scene in the episode where Fred, Barney and the ladies are on Mars and are spooked by the 3-headed monster
It was also used in The House That Fred Built and The Treasure of Sierra Madrock. The very beginning of that music used to scare the s#*t out of me as a 6-year old! Lol. Same with the Plodding Monster music, very creepy!
@ The House That Fred Built when Fred bought an old dilapidated shack and rebuilt it for his mother-in-law to move in. As they were moving the house to Fred's backyard, the house goes rolling down a steep hill with Fred and Barney holding on for dear life. That's when the music kicks in. But they jump off just in time as the house goes flying over a cliff!
The Sierra Matrock episode was when the Flintstones and Rubbles stop in an old mining town looking for gold. They eventually find some and two outlaws try to buy it from them. But Fred and Barney refuse and the outlaws try to kill them by trapping them in a cave with a giant bolder. Cue the music. I just saw those two episodes yesterday and last week!
I Wish I Had the Soundtract's to Space Ghost and The Hurculoids from the 60's Cartoon Shows!...
50:36 Gives me goose bumps, every time! :-)
Oh these tunes are excellent.Dont need to see the cartoon to enjoy these super talanted musicians led by Hoyt. Tops...!
This music and images created my life around the world
It sounds so much more different without the sound effects in the backround
Great...thanks!
Jonny Quest was the pinnacle for Hanna-Barbera and that goes for the music too.
One of the best animations ever. A long way beyond its time.
My favorite TV show!
Drum chase and wild chase. Those are two of the one's I'm looking for.
