"Why is it when you do something terrific, nine times out of 10 you're all alone, but when you screw up really big, the whole world is watching?"

David Newman contributed this rather nice score to the pretty damed good 1988 "what if" tale "Mr. Destiny." Larry Burrows (James Belushi) has always wondered what his life would have been like had he hit the winning home run at a high-school baseball game years earlier. When his car breaks down in front of a bar called "The Universal Joint," he meets Mike (Michael Caine), a bartende who turns out to be the man in charge of all people's destinies when he gives Larry a drink (called "The Spilt Milk") that allows him to go back and see what would have happened if he had hit that home run. Rich, powerful, and in charge of the sporting goods company that he works for, he thinks that he has it all, until he learns that he should be thankful for what he's got.

Prety good, mellow and sometimes rousing score for the film. Recommended for those times when you just want to relax. It comes reccomended. Download and enjoy.
