When I was a kid, I got hold of a tape (remember those?) that had music from Episode 4 on one side and, oddly, a long drum solo plus other tracks on the other. The solo is exactly the reason why I’m asking for your help. I don’t remember what was on the cover except it was yellow. Sorry if I can’t provide any more information. Any help would be much appreciated. You people are my only hope. Thank you. PS. Before my guest membership expires, I would just like to thank SDMB for introducing me to Serenity and Firefly. Oh, and George R.R. Martin. That is all. ---

You might be talking about Meco’s music. Listen to the clip titled _Other Galactic Funk_ [here](http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/1249744/a/Star+Wars+&+Other+Galactic+Funk.htm). ---
