I've been working through a tune which, though one of my favourites, I've never tackled before - for no particular reason.

It was used some years ago as a theme tune for a series of UK TV film review programmes called "Film '78", "Film '79", "Film '80", etc. (whenever they were). The programme was presented by the late Barry Norman.

The tune, which has a great gospel feel, is by Billy Taylor and is called "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free". There are words - not by Billy Taylor, sung by Nina Simone - but I like it as an instrumental piece.
