Growing up in Chicago, this music instantly makes me think of....well, Chicago. {#Angel}

Other than Rain Man and maybe Jerry Maguire, this is Tom's best movie, in my opinion!!

Thank you for playing this.  I never expected to hear it on Radio Paradise.  And that's why I keep listening.  Please continue the pleasant surprises!

How about "The Graduate"?  .... "plastic" 

I see some resemblance in the young Tom Cruise "Joel" character and the young Dustin Hoffman "Ben" character.

Interesting that they would be cast as brothers later in "Rain Man".

"Get off the babysitter, Joel."

There was a movie a few years ago that looked like a fun modern-day version of RB, but it fell fairly flat towards the end. RB and The Graduate had strong social commentary behind the coming-of-age humor. Movies these days can't juggle that many balls.

Heard it from the other room.  Of all the "New Age/Electronic" Music, nothing sounds like TD.

Totally agree, the early analogue stuff is the bizz, I first heard them in the early 70's, Phaedra was on John Peel in the nights. The track names were pretty well out there as well.....

On an almost unrelated note, if you ever wanted a Porsche 928 then now is a good time. Prices seem to have bottomed out. Running/driving cars that need some attention are going for about $5-6K. The best ones go for for $15-25. Expect to pay a little more for the 4-cam engines and/or the 5-speed (about %80 of them sent to North America are automatics).

They're still expensive cars to maintain, however. Don't pick up any of the sub-$5000 cars unless you're a mechanic, it'll probably need $10K worth of repairs.

I always thought this tune was by Global Communication, from 76:14.   I now realize this is the one from the movie.

Hey Bill,

nice "love" segue...

I also think I hear Beck's "Think I'm in Love" having basically the same chord progression as "Love on a Real Train" that followed...

But many of the themes, attitudes, and settings of this film are accurate reflections of a consumer driven society. Essentially, this film was a quieter satire, better taken as a whole than for dissection of script mechanics.

And I agree with "Guido (Joey Pants) is easily the strongest character in the film" - which is why the movie takes its dark turn when he shows up to spoil the lighthearted fun.

I never tire of this.  Brings back great memories of the movie and my life at that time.  mmmmmmmmmm

*edit* It has kind of a Jean Luc Ponty sound to it....guess it's a lot of that 80's synth....
