2. I was thinking about posting something like this the other day!
Hated them when I heard 'em in "speeding down the European highway" scenes on latenight TV in the 70s, but now I find them oddly compelling.

That and "Winchester Cathedral" and "Java" by Al Hirt.

Why do you ask?

4. I don't know...it just popped into my head
I haven't heard them in quite a while, but I always found the arrangements very pleasing.
