Thanks anyway, I've been able to find all my old favorites except that one. The closest I can think of is the long synth blasts from the very beginning of Tiger Okoshi's "One Note Samba", except they were played on an electric guitar, and more towards the middle of the song (perhaps even more than once, like a chorus). The song had kind of a dark, foreboding feel about it, like when I first heard it as a kid I pictured the band playing out in some field with a thunderstorm coming. I thought it might have been in the "name that tune" section before, but maybe not. One other weird thing is I lived in Texas and I thought they had stopped playing it, but one time I was in Kansas on a trip and they were playing it again, so I thought different parts of the country had different music at different times. Anyway, thanks for all your work in putting this site together.
