Thanks Jeff for posting! And Thanks Jeff for responding!
This particular show is going to be a little different as Bob is bringing in a ton of cues and underscores for some of the TV shows and movies he worked on - I told him to go heavy on the spy shows what with the upcoming Tiki Oasis theme!

Here's some additional details (and a bit about the new LuxuriaMusic.com Tees!

Haven't had time to listen to it all the way through yet. Just the first 20 minutes or so.

Will report back when I've finished listening to the whole thing!

I'm only about 1/4 through the show, but so far, so very good. I've learned a lot and even had a head-slapping "duh" moment. Once Robert Drasnin mentioned his first instrument was a clarinet, the big use of woodwinds on Voodoo and Voodoo II suddenly clicked. Guess I should have done some more research about his history. :)

Thanks for posting the show Lee!
