I've been looking forward to this show

P-90:

There were sequences with terrific, memorable scores in that movie, really unfortunate that much of it wasn’t available for so long (except of course on the movie itself.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:22pm
Mr. Pumpy:

YES! I love this track. I can see it all right now. ATV...bullet holes...
  7:24pm
P-90:

... and I hope Devon asks Grusin at some point about what discussions there might have been about what does and doesn’t sound “pirate-y” (and why!) and what his approach was to getting a “pirate-y” sound in much of the score.

re: Divorce American Style, I was literally talking with someone just yesterday about how you hear that electric harpsichord sprinkled into a theme for a movie or tv show, and you KNOW you’re in the mid-sixties...

Michael in Montclair:

My Dave Grusin intro was finding out about the credits to “There’s Something Funny Going On”, the theme song to “And Justice For All”. The musical style of that last track I just heard is so similar to “Something Funny”.

Good Times is one of the all-time home runs, an absolutely HUGE , complete musical statement squeezed into a very short theme.
