223.10?USOPS::ZAPPIAarmed & hammeredWed May 13 1992 20:3116
	Re: -1    Spirit reference reminds of a Titanic's (Boston) track 
	"The Family that Prays Together" (produced by Rich Gilbert, former
	Human Sexual response, Zulus, etc.)


	This isn't really related to this topic but...I recently heard,
	sadly for the first someone whose name now escape me on a special
	radio segment.  He recently passed away at the age of and some of 
	the early recordings I heard from the late 20's sound as if they
	would quite possibly blend in with recent experimental (lack of 
	word) stuff.

    RE: .9 
    
    I had heard some rumors about 6 months ago about a CD release of 
    Thunderclap Newman "Hollywood Dream".  Has this happened?  I haven't
    seen copies and the record stores have no idea.

223.34Good Choice!WMOIS::POIRIERFri May 15 1992 17:3512
    I'd like to ref. note 29. I also enjoy In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida but have you
    noticed it's usage, as music behind movies and TV shows. Great stuff if
    your about to chop up your wife or girlfriend. Jake and the fat man,
    last week, had the bad guy placing his victims, a woman of course, feet 
    in stirrups to do God only knows. Just as he is about to do what he's
    he has to do he turns and pushes the button on his cd player and, you
    guessed it, out comes In-A-Gadda-A-Vida. Another biggie was Man Hunter, 
    a Mike Mann movie, great movie but Iron Butterfly music behind it while 
    some 7 foot nut is walking room to room blowing everyting out of his way 
    is abit much.
    
    You should see the look on my wife when I put on In-A-Gadda-A-Vida
223.35SELL3::FAHELAmalthea Celebras/Silver UnicornFri May 15 1992 18:298
    Well, on a GOOD note, it was used in the background of a non-violent
    scene in the TV show "Quantum Leap" a couple seasons ago.
    
    I'd seen MANHUNTER (as a matter of fact, plan on a re-viewing this
    weekend) and when the song came on, _I_ was like, "Goodie!"  I have
    ALWAYS loved that song!
