I saw the sequel to American Grafitt back in the early 80's. I had no idea there even was a sequel at the point, but the opening sequence of 3 Hueys flying along a river to Martha and the Vandellas' song Heatwave gave me goosebumps and seared that image into my young brain. Everytime I hear the song, I'm reminded of the opening credits to More American Grafitti

I never saw the movie. But that was a great opening. They just needed some door gunners.

Isn't it though?

One of the comments on YouTube about this sequence:

Another scene from the same film, depicted Hueys flying to The Chantays song "Pipeline". I can't seem to find a clip of that though. search

Worth a bump for those who don't scroll back this far. I mentioned it on the MTH KS when someone was looking at songs for a Nam playlist. Definitely THIS one!
