Manabu Saitō was a Japanese composer from Saitama. While still in high school, he got a part-time job with System Sacom, and soon after was hired full-time as the company's lead composer, writing music for at least a dozen titles, including the first MIDI-compatible PC game in Japan, 380,000 Kilometers of the Void. Saitō passed away from kidney failure in October 1992 at the age of 22.

The climax, their rendition of the 1812 Overture, is one of the greatest moments in Western Civilization.
Beautiful piece by George Winston, chump. thank you. (Where would Elton be without Bernie?)
Cordelia, Marianne Faithful has always been a favorite; great choices of her music.
Blues and blues harp I really love. John Sebastian is, like his father was, a harmonica virtuoso. An outstanding instrumental piece titled "Night Owl Blues" was released in 1966 as the 'B' side of the 45rpm record, with "Daydream" as the 'A' side. (What a day for a daydream...) I don't think the 'B' side ever received any airplay, but Daydream was a hit that aired often. I bought the 45 because of Daydream and then I flipped it over and listened to its B side and was blown away. I've always felt it an excellent work. Night Owl Blues never appeared on one of the Loving Spoonful albums until 2002, which was news I leaned today. Hope you enjoy it too.
