Reviews
As creative director at UPA studios, whose bold, abstract style (e.g., in the Mr. Magoo cartoons) influenced all movie cartooning, and at Terrytoons, where he created Tom Terrific, Deitch was a leading figure in 1950s film animation. Just before then (1945-50), he contributed prolifically to The Record Changer , a jazz magazine, drawing dozens of graphically bold issue covers as well as gag cartoons in his midcentury-modern style (think Virgil Partch meets Gerald McBoing-Boing). The cartoons feature "the Cat," a hardcore record collector and jazz purist based on Deitch himself. In them, the bald, bespectacled jazz lover chases down rare platters, argues the superiority of traditional jazz to bebop, and otherwise airs his obsession (in one cartoon, he turns to horticulture because cactus needles were thought to cause less wear than metal ones on shellac 78s). Deitch's breezy annotations bolster the cartoons' evocation of the postwar jazz scene, and this oversize volume, containing all of the Cat and the covers as well as other drawings, is a hipster's delight nonpareil., "As creative director at UPA studios, whose bold, abstract style (e.g., in the Mr. Magoo cartoons) influenced all movie cartooning, and at Terrytoons, where he created Tom Terrific, Deitch was a leading figure in 1950s film animation.

Synopsis
A visual feast of swingin' cartoons for jazz lovers. On the long road to becoming an Oscar-winning animation director, Gene Deitch became an intense jazz fan. At the age of 21, he discovered The Record Changer, a jazz collector's magazine filled with fanatical, scholarly, and purist essays about jazz as well as listings of hard to find jazz albums. Every jazz swinger in the 40s was called a cat (as in cool cat), derived from the West African word "Katta," a human), so Gene Deitch created a cartoon feature for the Record Changer titled " The Cat," which quickly became a fixture at the magazine. He also started drawing the covers, which graced almost every issue from 1945 to 1951 along with the "The Cat." Deitch stylistically virtuoso images exquisitely embodied the essence of jazz and became a visual paean to the joy of collecting and appreciating jazz., On the long road to becoming an Oscar-winning animation director, Gene Deitch became an intense jazz fan, discovering The Record Changer, a jazz collector's magazine filled with fanatical, scholarly and purist essays about jazz. His jazz-inspired comic, The Cat', soon became a regular fixture at the magazine, and from 1945-1951 his drawings graced almost every single cover. Now this coffee-table art book collects all of his covers in gorgeous colour, as well as the b/w Cat cartoons and a commentary by Deitch.'
