Soundtracks That Really Score (I’m sorry there isn’t time for more)

The Wind and the Lion

As I put this show together, my greatest regret was that I only had two hours for the show.  Last night, in my art room, I listened to John Barry’s The Dove and I thought, I need to put that one on the show.  Then I remembered . . . that boat had already sailed. Some of my favorite music ... Read More »
