Thanks Gwenners. Do you enjoy it? How does it compare to Gould?

BTW... Loved your Tiki Bathroom especially the dark and cozy "Excremeditation Chamber of Mystery". I shall try to envision it while preforming my elaborate daily "Ceremonial Feeding of the Lobsters" at the Hodad Hale.

I've rather fond of it, including Mancini's take on Quiet Village which -- how to explain? -- sounds exactly like how I'd expect Mancini to go with the track. Heavy (though mellow) string and horn use. I like it a lot, more than Gould -- but I am a biased listener: I'm a big fan of Mancini's Mr. Lucky and Peter Gunn soundtracks and related works.

Glad you liked the Enchanted Tiki Bathroom. It has great atmosphere -- but the drinks are horrible!

Cheers,
