AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Alright I'm trying to find the artist and title of a certain song that used to be played on International Street during the Paramount days. It was all instrumental and had alot of saxaphone in it. Any help out there? Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Saxophone? Was it more of a pop-sounding track, or was it more symphony-like. I'm thinking Love Theme from China Town by Jerry Goldsmith? But that sounded more trumpety than saxophone... Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 Actually I think your right. I think it is a trumphet. Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Coach, I think that's "Baker Street". Great song! Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 Thats not it Bombay but thats still a pretty kick arse song. Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 I would Google the keywords "amazon jerry goldsmith", and check the "listen to samples", especially if they have the soundtrack to "Chinatown". If you see "Love Theme from Chinatown" in the list, click to listen. I think that might be your song. It was kind of slow and jazzy, and had a high-octave piano, then some beautiful string flourishes toward the end. Played really well with the fountains. My turn Does anyone know what song had the real flute-heavy, kind of action-thriller sound. I thought it was from Mission:Impossible (not the main theme), or maybe from TR. I don't know, but it was really cool-sounding, and played I think right before "Breakfast Machine" by Danny Elfman. Any guesses? I'd really love to know! Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 Did that and that's not what I'm looking for either. Quote
WooferBearATL Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Well, do they still play all the soundtracks in the communications center? If so I'm betting that someone that works over there could give ya a hint. Quote
CoastersNSich Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Here's several great instrumental songs that I remember from the PKI days of International Street: Dave Grusin & London Symphony Orchestra: Cinemagic "An Actor's Life" "Fratelli Chase" "Heaven Can Wait" "New Hampshire Hornpipe" "Mountain Dance (on the album Smooth Jazz - The Originals, Vol. 1)" David Foster: "Love Theme from "St. Elmo's Fire" (Instrumental)" They're on iTunes, so feel free to sample the for what you're looking for. I had the same situation, after hearing a new age-type of song at Cedar Point several years ago. I finally found out what it was a year or two ago... "Hideaway" by Russ Freeman & the Rippingtons, just by asking CP staff in an email. Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Virtually the entire soundtrack from International Street's Paramount days plays near Batman: The Ride at Six Flags Great Adventure. In prior years, it played until noon at the entrance plaza, after which they changed to pop standards not unlike those Cedar Fair now plays at Kings Island's entrance plaza. Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 St.Elmos Fire....Thats the one! Thanx Tom! Quote
