The music for the slow section is from Canadian Maynard Ferguson which was played during the 1976 Olympics closing ceremony in Montreal.

@peppe201  Thought this rendition was by Salsoul Orchestra...

@nondescriptnyc The music which I was referring to was the second piece of music. They skated a wonderful short in Ottawa but they were placed only in fourth place. Perhaps lack of speed had to do with that placement. Tai and Randy used this program at the 1978 National sports festival as well. At that event in Colorado Springs, they landed their first throw triple salchow. At the World Championships in Vienna in 1979, they were also landing triple twist lifts in the practice sessions.
