Aka 50s60s production music blog. Here is hopefully a lasting post her.e..the stock music library often misunderstood and talked about as used in so many old television and schoolhouse programs and films, espeiclaly in many sitcoms and cartoons, started in 1949 as Capitol Q, made up of Mutel, David and Byron Chudnow,. ALexandre Lazlo, and Herschel Burke Gilbnert stock music among others. Others starting being widely used but independently. However the Capitol library department as known started licensing and more confusingly created their own music with renaming (with their trademark mundane-kind of-names for the cues) the cues with different "publisher abbreivation" codes.
Sometimes the codes would be some other library., Siometimes the letter codes would stand for some publisher. For instance, Bill Loose [b.Indiana, 1991 d.1991] was the head and his code was namely simply "C"!For CAPITOL, obviously.
Those composers (from within and without the library) and their codes (at Capitol,lthat is_)
would be
Belasclo, Jack "SF" (Sam Fox)
Bluestone Harry, usually with Cadkin, Emil (see below) but often with Cadkin "CB" (Cadkin/Bluestone)
Cadkin, Emil, with aforementioned Bluestone as noted, as "CB" - often worked as "Chandler/Williams", or with Bill Loose under (if with those two) "JB", and sometimes credited with third composer Jack Cookerly under "OK" (Omar-Kruahaar-Fox?).Sometimes this would get a three letter publishers code, PMS for Production Music Services (see next paragraphs).Phil Green is also said to have done scores under these names. Surprsingly, Jack Cookerly was never solely credited but often did a lot of solo compositions under the "PMS" & "OK" pub. abbrieviations.
Cookerly, Jack. See Cadkin, Emil.
Green, (Harry) Phillip. Worked under various houses under various "codes" (many stock ,libraries had them)-"UP'"GR","PG", (The initials of his name, I'm guessing), EM" (EMI Photoplay London), & "CT". Don't ask me what all those stand for.
Hormel, George. "ZR" (for "Zephyr Records")
Laszlo, Alexander. "SM" (for "Structural Music").,
Loose, Bill. "C" (for "Capitol Records". Duh! As mentioned.)
Moore, Spencer. "L". (Not sure what this one stood for.)
Seely, John and Loose, Bill. Wrote as "TC" ("Theme Craft"), ML ("May-Loo") and "AL",among others.
Shaindlin, Jack "F" (Fox)?
There were many more.
I'll post some more on this tomorrow.

Loose, of course, wrote (or is credited with writing) 7007 different pieces that have BMI numbers. Some are written pn his own, others with Emil Cadkin, or with Cadkin and Jack Cookerly. Some of these Capitol cues have "AM", "C", "JB", "ML", "MR", "OK", "TM", "PMS" and "WA" (among others, perhaps).
The Loose-Seely cues are credited to MAY-LOO MUSIC INC and INSELTOWN MUSIC INC and Additional Non-BMI Publishers (who aren't named). The Loose cues are strictly those two publishing firms.
Sorry, that should read TINSELTOWN MUSIC.
Loose wrote with Seely, Loose with Emil Cadkin, which in TURN got cowritten with Jack Cookerly or "with" Philip Green-his being a seperate library composer explaining the quotes..in "Play Production Music: CARLIN ARCHIVES: CARLIN ONLINE SERIES"..note Loose and Cadkin always in THAT ORDER--BUT..P.Green FIRST, but JACK COOKERLY-since he worked with Loose & Cadkin---THIRD..but the four composers NEVER listed together!
SC-the author of this blog
Steve, the Green-Loose-Cadkin trio wrote for EMI Photoplay, or at least have cues in it. I don't have the actual discs but I gather the composers are listed in the order I've given them. It was Green's library, after all.
Eventually, my blog is going to do a piece on Hi-Q, or at least the stuff used in HB cartoons. That lets out Jack Meakin and Nelson Riddle, who wrote stuff for the 'D' series, though I admit there are some cues I can't identify and I don't have a complete listing of the 'L' discs.
Spencer Moore also is given an 'LM' designation.
Yowp
Sorry for my bad english. Thank you so much for your good post. Your post helped me in my college assignment, If you can provide me more details please email me.
This can be a lot of fantastic stuff. I found several things which I am seeking.
Nice piece of reading I have to admit. Well developed and beneficial, thank you!
It can be upsetting that we now have people not always searching over this website. Best wishes
This is actually great articles. I'll absolutely continually be writing a blog and also conveying this. Exactly what I am searching for.
