What Are Your Favorite Instrumentals?*

This record because my dad used to play it for me over and over when I was a kid. I'm sure it gave him headaches but he knew I loved hearing it. Nice memories.

 

Anyone else love the Dream Academy's instrumental version of "Please Let Me Get I Want" (used in Ferris Bueller in the Chicago Art Institute Scene)? I think their take on the Smith's classic is simply haunting, introspective, breathtaking, and beautiful all in the same breath. Epic in my opinion. Could listen on repeat for hours.

It's a pity that Graham Central Station's "Jam" peaked only at #63 on the BillBoard Pop Chart in March of '76. It's OK though as I like playing it to others as a hidden treasure. There were scads of amazing instrumentals that made the pop chart throughout the '70s!
