Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe club setting, the band, and the club patrons are all nods to the swinging 60's music scene. Even Jerry's playing with his hairstyle is a broad wink at the 'mop top' look popularized by the Beatles a few years earlier.

Featured review
Pretty cool, daddio!
Having hit rock bottom with Guided Mouse-Ille, director Abe Levitow bounces back with this lively, if not wholly original short that sees Tom's sleep disturbed by Jerry and his hep pals as they play loud jazz music in a basement nightclub.
The swinging music definitely helps this one to trundle along at a decent lick, but Levitow also manages to throw in some well timed laughs, the occasional genuinely inspired moment (Jerry's shower—a wrench on a water pipe—is pure genius) and suitably colourful visuals. Not the greatest entry in the entire Tom and Jerry canon, but after the wreck that was Guided Mouse-Ille, it's actually something of a minor miracle.
