Tyler...thank you for sharing your journey with us, and I’m looking forward to the next installment. Listening to the soundtracks for Breakfast and Suzie Wong made me think about all the great TV show theme songs from the ā€˜60s/70s that were jazz infused. For example, the theme from Mannix (Lalo Schifrin), which packs a powerful punch in less than 2:00 minutes.

Great call, Steve. I totally forgot to mention all the great TV themes, like Mannix. Thanks for coming along on the journey.

I fell in love with Fred Astaire movies at the same time. I'd come home from summer morning swim practices and watch him dance.

I was surprised to see hear Ra in the 70s in your first entry! I was also thinking - wouldn't it be great if there were a way for readers to comment after each video you post...

No way. That's really unbelievable in that I thought I was the long Fred Astaire ranger out there. Do you recall a specific aspect of the moves that grabbed a hold of you?

Well, I'm not the most technically savvy guy, but I think that is a great idea. I'll have to look into that.
