For all the Raymond Scott fans, there is a documentary available that chronicles his life and accomplishments. It's a little different in that it is from the perspective of his son who is a filmmaker. Lots of music and interviews including two of his wives, Mark Mothersbaugh who owns what may be the only Electronium in existence, and John Williams whose father was Scott's drummer in the Raymond Scott Quintet.

I found it absolutely fascinating and recommend it.

You can watch the trailer and order the DVD from here:

Just recently I found out about Raymond Scott and thought his music might be of interest to some of the people on this list. I hope you enjoy...
