Best Blitzeroo Fake-Out To Date?
That Cinema Classics CD that followed the church hymns.
When the funkified, 70's-filtered cover of Also Sprach Zarathustra started up, I actually believed I had put the wrong CD in the changer. I wracked my brain for at least the first 60 seconds of the track wondering just what I could've mis-filed. Surely this wasn't the opening track of the Tom Cochrane CD to follow, or the Leonard Cohen CD past that? I concluded that you probably left the wrong disc in the case and I was too clumsy to notice.
Then I recognized the tune for what it was.
How odd that the second track (and that's where I left it at this morning) seems to be a straight-up cover of Beethoven's 9th. And that the CD packaging itself doesn't indicate in any way that you'll be listening to crazy roller-boogie covers of the Classical works. I thought the ('68) in the title might've been the tip-off, but that date must refer the date of the movie - but this is clearly not the version used in the film.
