I never understood the cover on that one, the coloring. It looks sun-faded or something. But that's where "Moon Rays" lives, so get, right!

Can't go wrong with Jackie Wilson.

Really, at some point, people's lack of curiosity is their own fault, a choice they make.

Bands vs Projects...

I have no idea. Long wondered that myself. Nobody talks about it, it seems. Sonny might, these days? There's an edit there, so I wonder how many takes they did, and for how many choruses. Probably not many either way, but still, Sonny Rollins sitcom theme. What are the odds? It's a curiosity all around!

It was not a hit.

Billy Connolly had a one-season sitcom on ABC called Billy!, for which the theme song was Sonny playing "I've Told Every Little Star" in a then-current (late 80s-ish) rendition.

It's always bugged me that there seems to be no trace of the original soundtrack recordings except what's in the film. It's also bugged me that Sonny Rollins' sitcom theme has not yet gained currency as a bootleg.

It was out in Europe for a while before it got published in America. Go figure that, eh?

Same.

That was the basic premise, wasn't it? To ask a fixed set of questions so different responses could be contrast-and-compared? Maybe I'm misremembering that, though?

All of them, really. I've yet to hear one that didn't hit the spot. Some maybe more than others, but not a miss in the bunch, so far.

Not him, but I saw literally hundreds (conceivably more?) of people of his age and general "hipness" dressing like that back in the day. Often roomfuls at once. Those 70s old people were not afraid to be gaudy...I thin they kind of dug it, actually. Why not? They're old and still alive and kicking, flaunt it like that!

He was a Yankee!

This.

Seen in real time (and in color!), it makes wonderful "hip old guy" sense. Hines' toupee choices, otoh...not so much (if at all).
