Nice. I understand that there are some people who can listen to that
without thinking of Bo Derek. :-)

Yup, I'se one. I didn't know Bo Derek was in a movie named 'Bolero'
until just now. I'm wondering
where I was in 1984 when that came out. (I looked it up on You Tube.)
Hell, I was right here working
at the Army Personnel Center. Too damn busy to go to the movies, I reckon.


The "Bolaro" reference was originally from the movie "10".



Ravel was never on my favorites list, and he dropped even lower for
orchestrating and turning Modest Mussorgsky's lovely Pictures at an
Exhibition into a bombastic Herring piece.

Here's some Ravel that may be subtle enough for your delicate
sensibilities:

Funny. Ravel's version of Pics at an Exhibition is by far the most
played and recorded version. Somebody likes it.


Is Ravel’s orchestration a homage, a tribute, or a cover? I like it the way
the composer wrote it.
