COMMENTARY

1. Early morning bells, fair distance away, but little interference from town (2 cars passing).

2. Bells close by; bit clangy; lowest and highest bell are 6th apart, beautiful effect. Note nice decay of bells at end of this sequence.

3. Very clear rain sounds. It's pouring onto stone or concrete. Occasional car passing.

4. Rainstorm. Very different atmosphere than above (take 3). Raindrops muted, falling on softer surface. Good Thunders!

5. Levels suddenly much higher, including last thunder.

6. Jukebox with heavy bass. Nice ambience change when walking into dining room. Bass still audible underneath dining room ambience.

7. Jukebox playing.
