I believe it features a paino.

Some of his music is recycled in several JF films, sometimes without credit, as in LES GLOUTONNES. And yes, the LORNA music is indelible.Robert Monellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309327472702575547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-58880188614080633042007-07-16T11:33:00.000-04:002007-07-16T11:33:00.000-04:00One must also wonder if some of the works he did f...One must also wonder if some of the works he did for Franco ended up with different titles on his own albums too? Or maybe Franco used them from his albums with permission or something.. maybe I am off but who knows..
