Staying Alive - name of a piece of music.

Recommended Posts

Could anyone tell me......in the film 'Staying Alive', what is the name of the second short piece of music which plays during the part when John Travolta is watching Finola Hughes dance. About twenty mins in.

 

Anyone?

Do you mean 0:59 - 1:39 ?

 

 

Dunno, but I've got the strong feeling that Frank Stallone wrote it for the film.

Look up the OST CD.

Yes, FANA. That exact piece of music. I have watched this film scores of time over the course of my life, and have always loved that music. No idea what it is, though. Shame.

With Vince DiCola perhaps. My money is on Johnny Mandel, who has strong links with the jazz world.

I would say a member of Weather report or similar doing a moonlight to earn to soft dollars-maybe Hubbie Hancock or Chicken Korea?

Both pianists. To me, that saxophone says Suit Zims (who was a chum of Mandel btw).
