Thanks, Fred. The other day you hinted that you think Mister Mendoza did some interesting things for TRAVELOGUE. Others have problems with the 'liscence' he took, creating "program music" rather than a reserved supporting score, implying that he created something akin to incidental music in a movie score (like using a slide whistle when Oliver and Hardy are doing slap stick). When you're ready, I'm keenly interested to know how this shakes down, in your brain, over time.
