In the '60s, Mel Blanc turned more and more to television cartoons for work and became involved in a series of recordings for Capitol that was distributed by the worldwide children's firm Ziv International. Working in conjunction with music arrangers such as Billy May, Blanc drew on his arsenal of characters from across the spectrum of studios. Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tune gang and even Woody Woodpecker are brought to life by Blanc on these records. He became closely involved in the creation of some of this material, even emerging as a songwriter with "I Taut I Taw a Puddy Tat," a sophisticated romantic ballad sung by Tweety. In the '70s he became critical of the quality of the cartoons he was forced to work in, although he never expressed the slightest interest in retiring.
