I...Indeed, Coney Island is one of my top favorites. It evokes New York City in spirit, from the Broadway overture sounding introduction to the saxophone motif for lovers.

Well...No comments yet on Coney Island by Don Banks! Well, by golly, I'll be the first then. It was while I was living in New York that I first heard Banks' Coney Island on a New Jersey radio station, which usually played rather banal wallpaper music. So this piece stood out like a geyser in a desert. Mr. Banks is more noted for his horror music film scores. This is a wonderful departure. This IS New York City music. It catches the great spirit of the greatest city in the world -- in my opinion. Thanks for the excellent writeup! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
