The song "Beyond The Blue Horizon" was in the 1988 movie "Rainman" starring Dustin Hoffman & Tom Cruise!! Also former Monkees the late Michael Nesmith & The First National Band did the song from 1970 "Magnetic South" on RCA.

The banjo and the dobro part is super amazing.

Here's a terrific song--"Escape"--by Lou Christie that I remember so well from the summer of 1967, which has the feel of jazz and was heard on easy listening station KDEO AM.

A little guitar would help accentuate that song.
