Jock-A-Mo

 

Rainman-soundtrack
 

++The blond girl from 2 Broke Girls and Paul Kinsey ? That's an unexpected coupling. (Unexpectedly darling!)

++I was searching for the song Iko Iko yesterday, and was amazed to find that I've operated under the false assumption all these years that Paul Simon did a version. Was *so* convinced that I considered seeking out a Brady's Bits-type column where I could ask a "Settle this bet" question, like the true codger I've become. Turns out I was probably wrong and that my brain automatically files everything Graceland-sounding into one giant mush pile.

Anyhooshpuppies, Iko Iko by the Belle Stars (I like the Dixie Cups version better) was on the Rain Man soundtrack and most of the songs on that album were composed by SOG obsession Hans Zimmer! All roads lead back to Zimmer.

What's this? People on You Tube attacking The Zims?!:

 "he has six people who are writing the music for him and he is the composer?"- john carpenter about hans zimmer.. he's right.. every filmmusic of him sounds like the other he scored before..he destroyed the art of composing for films are do a big zimmer fan knows who is erich wolfgang korngold? oh don't think so...and he's not really talented...williams is talented, writes every note for every instrument for the orchestra not like zimmer, who have programs and people who are working for him!
