Over the Rainbow by Harold Arlen, Lyric by E. Y. Harburg
In 1988 I saw a guitarist play an instrumental version of this song at a Bar in Studio city and it blew me away. Amazing performance that is still memorable after twenty years. After the set, I went up and congratulated him and asked him if he had the sheet music for the song. Indignantly he replied, "Why don't you go buy it yourself?" So, I did.
I used to love "The Wizard of Oz" movie as a kid, but find it almost unwatchable as an adult. Curious.
