Having written that I thought I should try to answer an old nagging question "just what is an ice water mansion when it's at home"?? I therefore consulted both Mr Google and Mr Bing to show me images of "ice water mansions" both told me that there is a vocal group called "ice water mansion" and the latter produced this photo


a picture that was originally featured as an "iconic cinema house" on
http://wwwcinemastyle.blogspot.com/2...ma-houses.html
with the caption
"
Dr. Zhivago's (1965) famed "ice palace"/dacha where the doctor and his lover Lara made their refuge was filmed in the middle of summer in Soria, Spain. The sets were dressed in hot wax and sprayed with cold water to resemble the look of frost and ice."
So it is just possible that Gord had recently watched the Doctor Zhivago film whilst composing the Fitz??
DISCUSS!!
