      Indeed so - and don't you wish you could write songs like what they did?

      Coleslaw:
      Indiana

      Eagles written by Ned Rorem who came from there as do:
      Hoagy Carmichael, the genius who wrote Skylark and
      Cole Porter, the genius who wrote Anything Goes.

      What was it about the Indiana air that produced these songwriters and then .... a family called Jackson!

      Probably it's Anton on points!

          Alexis Weissenberg? A pianist who divided opinion - HvK was on his side.

            Julliard - Weissenberg studied there. It is situated in Trenton NJ - haven't a clue about Eyes Wide Shut except JLS were involved in the soundtrack.

              Jocelyn Pook composed EWS. She has worked with Juillard Electric Ensemble.

                Probably better answers but not the J on the card - you need someone from Trenton and someone from the other side of the Cold War to get you there......

                  Thought it was too easy for one of yours, Anton.

                      George Antheil hailed from T NJ but I can't tie in that "bad boy".
