Hey everyone, here's a cover of the Lovin' Spoonful song "Summer In The City".
The intro title sequence was based on the intro to Die Hard With A Vengeance, where the original version of this song was used.
The "car driving off" sound in the middle of the track was actually recorded with the acoustic guitar, as it had loose braces under the soundboard that would creak when pushed on, and that was run through tape saturation and delay to get the desired effect.
