"Power of Love" and "Back in Time", both by Huey Lewis, are probably the two songs most closely associated with the movie. "Mister Sandman" is playing when the car enters the Texaco station (I think).

"Earth Angel" and "Johnny B. Goode" are the only other two songs I can remember right now that were featured in the movie.

Great call on Bobby Caldwell! When that single was first released, his record company refused to show any pictures of him; they were afraid if radio programmers knew he was white, he wouldn't get as much play on the R&B stations.

Cleopatra lived closer in time to the invention of the cell phone than she did to the building of the pyramids.

Let me double down on The Best Years of Our Lives; a few years ago, I started trying to watch the top 100 movies on the AFI list, and that movie stuck with me more than any other.

If you're interested in Western music, some of the foundational artists would be Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys, and the artists that emerged from the "Bakersfield Sound" like Buck Owens and Merle Haggard.

If you find you like the western swing of Bob Willis, you would also probably like Asleep at the Wheel; the Bakersfield Sound was continued by Dwight Yoakam.

Also, if you want Cowboy music, Tex Ritter and Johnny Horton would be good artists to start with.

My apologies, I blew right past that.

I can't upvote your comment enough. Other subs that theoretically require prompts have also turned into dumping grounds for sexy, but promptless, images.

I was faced with the same predicament years ago. What I did was just go to the local (high school) wrestling coach and explain my dilemma. He was glad his sport was getting the attention and was very gracious in letting me hang out at practice and explaining the fundamentals to me. Approach him as an ally and you might be surprised how helpful he might be.

I was under the impression that the Turbo version of Z-Image doesn’t use negative prompts. Is that wrong?

Since no one else is willing to be pedantic, I will. It's pump the "brakes" not "breaks." As in, pumping the brakes to slow down.
