Right, bare with me, but I have been looking for this song for years but I have no idea what it is called. It's been used in lots of things and it isn't a new song, pre-90's I believe, probably around the time of "House of the Rising Sun" by the Animals as it seems to have that sort of feel to it. It is an acoustic track. One of the main instruments is an electric organ I believe. My mom thought it was named something like "Green Tomatoes" but that only seems to find an acoustic trumpet style track by someone named Braun and it isn't it (and isn't anything like it).
If anyone can throw ideas around, it would be appreciated because it's driving me mad right now.
Cheers,
Ex

Nope, music only.
Well, amazingly, I managed to find it, the track was "Booker T and The MGs - Fried Green Tomatoes". Great tune.
Thanks anyway.

I knew right away what the song was. (How much does it stink getting old? The highlight of your day is knowing the answer to a forty year old trivia question...)
Thanks for nipping this in the bud, MM. As I read through the thread I had to combat disturbing mental images of a nude Fanny Flagg... :eek3:

Ah, thanks. A worrying amount of people seem to have the wrong named thing as well... :wtf:
