July 6, 1989
This music is great. It’s terrific. It’s everything I’d hoped for. It gives the game a whole new dimension. I’m incredibly thrilled, actually.
Brian suggested a candidate of his own to do the Princess shoot – Peter LaDeau’s 18-year-old daughter Tina – and I agreed. The problem with Alison was, I couldn’t think of who to have her embrace. She might feel awkward about me asking her to throw herself into the arms of a total stranger. This way, it’s all within the family (so to speak).
Brian and Peter enjoyed the pastrami I brought back from the Carnegie Deli.
Dad is in a tough spot. The Prince of Persia music is practically the only bright spot in his life right now. I’m glad he did such a good job. We did.


What was your dad’s job/business, if you don’t mind my asking? I don’t think it’s mentioned in your diary.
