Hello Music Friends,
Happy Belated
4th of July. I'd like to salute the men and women of our armed forces who have made huge sacrifices that has helped us maintain our way of life. As a former
Air National Guardsmen, I totally understand and appreciate your efforts.
Thank You.
Continuing on, this 4th of July weekend brought about a
Star Wars marathon on TV. As a fan of the series I was in total bliss. I must've sat in front of the screen for a good five plus hours. It was great. Not many people may have realized that the
soundtrack of
Episode V Star Wars (1977 release)featured
steel drums playing in the background. They can be heard during the
" Cantina Band " scene. I guess
George Lucas needed and unusual and mystical sound for that part. Enter
steel drums stage left!
Keep Well,
Best
Minsky
