. . . it produces an eerie, foreboding sound which causes otherwise functioning people to "freeze," or even WALK TOWARD danger, as do the mesmerized mice succumbing to Sylvester's panic flute playing during THE PIED PIPER OF GUADALUPE. Gales at sea "singing" through an endangered ship's rigging (like Gordon's dirge on the Ed Fitzgerald in the 1900's), tornadoes ripping through trailer parks drowning in the sounds of Nashville and hurricanes punctuating the jazz funerals of New Orleans with dismembering steel slats bopping along at 150 MPH all illustrate this phenomena. This makes PIED PIPER a good choice to hunker down with before you lose your power to Ida in the Big Easy today.
