What is it about that tune, anyway?

The opening theme from Hugo Alfven's Swedish Rhapsody appears to have caught the fancy of many a musician. Be advised: not all performances are created equally. Be warned: this tune will be going through your head for the rest of the day.

Guitarist Chet Atkins helped popularize the tune with a version currently out of print.
