Sometime in the 1970s White and Franco sat down at a pianola to record this tune. They were firm friends by now and you can hear it in the music. It is in the ragtime style which Franco loved and to me it evokes the era of silent comedy films. Indeed, Franco would use this tune as the title theme of his 1976 comedy, 'Midnight Party,' in which it identifies the clumsy leading lady, 'Sylvia', played by Lina Romay.
White and Franco also recorded a much slower version for piano and synthesizer, which Franco would later recycle as the main theme of his 1980 film, 'Eugenie (Historia De Una Perversión),' and it also featured in several 'Golden Films' of the same period.

The original piano roll version of the track was released by Corelia in 1984 on the album, 'Mood Selection Ambiance - Volume 2.'

I am just an amateur and do not own any of this.
