SO many great clips of old commercials - they take me back to the 70's.
And 'discover' the amazing music when Chance leaves the house:

"Also Sprach Zarathustra" (written by Richard Strauss) is the name of the song, arranged & played (keyboards) by the jazz great Eumir Deodato (from Brazil). In over 9 minutes of cool, he knocks it out of the park. This song won the 74 Grammy for Best Instrumental Performance, and went to No. 2 in the U.S. pop charts.
Oh, and "Do you know Rafael?" -

When I heard Deodato's keyboard intro, and then the track did not fade out after a minute or two, I thought, "Really? Very cool but odd. There are lots of movies I could have imagined making use of that music, but
this
is certainly not one of them." It's almost the only thing in the movie that's funky other than Oteil Burbridge!
