slide_advantage_redoux Posted September 2, 2012 Report Posted September 2, 2012 Heard a song on Musak lately that surprised you? When I was in upstate New York in the early 80s when a member of the West Point Jazz Knights (that is an entirely different topic there), I overheard an arrangement of Moment's Notice in a department store. I could hardly believe what I was hearing. I stopped pushing my shopping cart on the spot and listened to the music. And the arrangement wasn't bad! Quote
GA Russell Posted September 2, 2012 Report Posted September 2, 2012 Perhaps ten years ago I heard 7+7 Is. I didn't think that Musak had many Love fans. Quote
Michael Weiss Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 (edited) I heard the Berg piano sonata in Newark airport's terminal C. Couldn't believe it. How's that for ambient music! Edited September 3, 2012 by Michael Weiss Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted September 3, 2012 Report Posted September 3, 2012 In a pretty cafe in deeply suburban Tokyo, I heard some Pharoah Sanders (couldn't be sure what), followed by 'Moonlight in Vermont' by Sonny Stitt, from the Denon album of the same title. MG Quote

My favorite line from the movie "Airheads". "Who would win in a fight, Lemmy or God? Trick question, Lemmy IS God!" Quote
