The Casino is a dreary sort of a  place, especially when it rains.  But most people don’t just stand there;  instead they walk through–back or forth or both.

This place  is dark, but always there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, even if it’s raining.  It’s a quiet place usually, unless there is live music, and walking by live music is comforting  because our brains usually welcome music.

And why is there always music (called a soundtrack) when we watch a movie?   Most moviegoers are barely aware of the music playing and influencing their  sensory experience.

If you read the credits, you will see that there are a lot more music credits than you expected.    But it is important, and “Hollywood” knows that.   That’s why Ennio Morricone won  Academy Awards.

 

And Arthur Prysock had a hit with this song from Drearyville; and I like it, especially since, lurking in the background, is Count Basie and his band.
