Beautifully eerie yet sleazy, it matches the show well. I heard it many years ago (Sax solo, guitar backup) and helped play a big-band arrangement last year. Now--could anyone tell us when it was first composed, and by whom? --mike k PS: Don't split the newsgroup--my N key can recognize most rock-group names by syntax alone.
