The version of “The Desired Effect” on Mike Keneally’s \*Half Alive in Hollywood \*had thunderstorm effects dubbed on to camouflage audio glitches. The result sounds awesome! ---

Bathory. _Hammerheart_, _Storm Of Damnation_, _Oden’s Ride Over Nordland_, and probably a number of others. I have played _Hammerheart_ at two parent funerals, and God Willing, it will be played at mine; thus creating family tradition.\* \*\* - After one a funeral director actually asked for a copy to recommend for other funerals, so hopefully it will be used for far more than my people. With respect to Holst as well as Quorthon. \*\* The song Hammerheart is from the album, _Twilight of the Gods_, not from the previous year’s album, _Hammerheart_. ---

> [@cochrane](#): > > “Riders on the Storm” by the Doors, natch. > [@Boyo\_Jim](#): > > _Cars Hiss by My Window_ by The Doors - think it has rain sfx in it. Horse Latitudes, too. Although it’s more spoken word. British Sea Power - Fear of Drowning, although mostly just in the intro. ---
