    Excellent call. It's in the same class as Errol Dunkley's "Movie Star."

    I'll also add:

    Les McCann & Eddie Harris - "Kathleen's Theme"

    Thelonious Monk & Sonny Rollins - "The Way You Look Tonight"

    morning listening:
    les fleur - ramsey's version (i know...) but to make up for it:
    minnie riperton - only when I'm dreaming
    rotary connection - black gold of the sun
    freddie hubbard - uncle albert
    doobie brothers - black water
    neil young - will to love
    food - forever is a dream (whole LP)

    seriously too many beautiful songs. picking one, or even a group of them is like 3 people simultaneously trying to escape the narrow doorway of my mind.

    Todd Rundgren "Be Nice To Me". I know it said single most, but I gotta add more. Gustav Holst "Neptune The Mystic", Beach Boys "Our Sweet Love", Debussy "Afternoon Of A Faun"
