Vic Mizzy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vic Mizzy, born January 9, 1916 (or 1922), in Brooklyn, New York, is an American composer for television and movies whose best known works are the themes to the 1960s television shows Green Acres and The Addams Family.
He also wrote the scores for two very popular Don Knotts films in the later half of the 1960's, "The Ghost And Mr. Chicken" and "The Reluctant Astronaut". Both scores possessed a sound which became billed as "The Don Knotts Sound".
For The first time in 40 years, Mizzy, through Percepto Records, has released these scored on CD, complimenting the DVD releases of the films.
