I had no concept of what the theme from A Summer Place sounded like, but from the opening bar I knew exactly what it was.

TOD:  The favorite instrumentals from movies that come to mind, besides the ones BK mentioned in the notes, are "Axel F" (from "Beverly Hills Cop") and "Chariots of Fire"

Percy Faith won a Grammy Award for his recording of A Summer Place. It was for record of the year and the first movie theme to do so and it was one of two instrumentals as well

Many of the Bond theme songs up to Nobody Does It Better are favorites. I also liked To Sir With Love which surprisingly was nominated for an Oscar. There are many theme songs that were Oscar nominated and I have a collection of them up to about 10 years ago. A lot of them were good and quite a few were terrible and I wonder how the hell the music branch even nominated them.

I forgot to set the alarm and as a consequence I slept later than expected. I kept dozing with Annabelle and Thatch, and I finally said to Thatch, it's gotta be later than 5:30. I checked the alarm: 6:47.

Peter Gunn is TV, but the instrumental is great, as is that cinematic Mancini masterpiece, The Pink Panther.

Busy day today, what with the vet and several errands before I can settle into doing anything at home.
