It's so funny to see all six members of the "quintette" with beards and crazy clothing. Note that Scott is "playing" some sort of electronic keyboard, or at least a dummy of one. Hell, this is 1937, and Scott was just barely into the electronic stuff at this time, if at all. John Williams' dad on the big bongo is also a scream!
In the Bugs Bunny cartoon, "Jack Wabbit and the Beanstalk', they play a segment of this tune (when Bugs falls off giant's head and the giant is trying to catch him)
@ThatsGoodTellivision Wow, cheers for that fact! He is a GREAT drummer and should be far better known. Scott's music is arranged down to the last tonk on the cowbell, and JW plays it all flawlessly and with style. I have the superb CD "Reckless Nights and Turkish Delights" I love the music and dancing.
that 'keyboard' that he's 'playing' is far more likely a qanun (kanun, various spellings, many middle eastern countries) and what a great font at the beginning!

Acording to the IMDB this tune from the movie Ali Baba Goes To Town is titled Arabania. This is what the IMDB says Arabania (1937) (uncredited) Music by Harry Revel Lyrics by Mack Gordon Performed by Raymond Scott and His Quintet Danced by The Pearl Twins Saludos/Salutacions/Regards
My guess is that Arabania is another number from that film, as the IMDB reference indicates there are lyrics to that one. I cannot find any reference to it outside IMDB, though. www.imdb.com/title/tt0028566/soundtrack?ref_=tt_trv_snd
Somehow, I don't think there was music just like this, or dancing ladies like these, in the ancient days of Ali Baba...but then, can we really be sure? I wasn't around then.
the quote from "The Streets of Cairo" from 0:48 to 1:09 only makes this more awesome.
love me some Raymond Scott music -- such genius!

Wow. I didn't know that John Williams' dad was in Raymond Scott's quintet. Very cool.

I was there. It WAS EXACTLY like this.
ITS DISCIPLINE THAT BEGETS LOVE!
Can't. Stop. Watching... 😵💫
Professor Elemental is a genius to slow this down.

The chicks may be hot, but those drums are on fire!!
Fabulous!

Nous reconnaissons Raymond Scott parmi les musiciens. Sa musique est aussi utilisée pour les dessins animés.
Four with exactly no clue what constitutes kick-arse musicianship.
This is amazing!!
Watch this instead of just the music...Great girls!!!!!

I see there was a composer named Harry Revel. I wonder if he was related to Morris Revel, author of Le Velse, El Borede del Greciose, and Beléro...
Drummer reminds me Keith Moon :)
0:07 where have I heard that little tune before? some cartoon for sure, but where's it more prevalent?
ren and stimpy
Episodes Man's Best Friend (1992), and Circus Midgets (1993) probably. Though Man's Best Friend never appeared on Nickelodeon.

I'm doing serious anthropological research. Are there any more authentic archives like this?
FYI, Louise Hovick became better known as Gypsy Rose Lee. "Hot Chick" indeed!
