More - Oliviero, Ortolani, Ciorciolini (Mondo Cane)

"More" is the musical theme of the undistinguished 1962 Italian film Mondo Cane. It was very popular with adult audiences in the 1960s; I played it at virtually every gig I did back then. It is a piece of very limited musical interest with 5 8-measure sections (AABAB'). The harmonic content is mostly I-vi-ii-V. Why do I post this arrangement? Because if you play for Senior Citizens, as I do, you should play this tune for them, tipping your hat to their memories of half-a-century ago.

A lead sheet for "More" can be found in a Hal Leonard publication: The Real Ultimate Jazz Fake Book (this really is the title, not to be confused with other Hal Leonard fake books).

I play it at 90 bpm using the Latin - Cuba: Bolero style.
