a little racing, and classical music, just like the opening scene to The Love Bug. Your coffee and donuts moment of the day



Thanks Bruce!

If you're wondering what this had to do with the Love Bug, then see https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/01/where-can-you-find-andy-granatelli-bill.html

  1. Racing and classical music is a perfect match: https://vimeo.com/12215744

    (Ever since seeing '2001', I can't hear 'The Blue Danube Waltz' without seeing Kubrick's spaceship landing on the Moon)

    1. Sorry Kim, but this begs the question, when did you see it? I saw it when it first came out back in '68.

    2. I saw it in 1968 or 1969, as I still lived in Copenhagen then. I would have been 13 or 14 years old, and already heavily into sci-fi. But I've seen the movie numerous times since then.

      In early school years we had an awful music teacher, who managed to make most of us hate classical music. I credit '2001' for making me like it again (listening to this right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFoT6UUNLZc).
