I'm trying to identify some of this music, but it's harder when you don't know what game you're listening to ...
Incidentally, have you tried Jones in the Fast Lane yet? It has some very catchy music.

Oops! I didn't notice that. Great idea
I thought the "Tulane University – by Ken Allen – Colonel’s Bequest" music (in volume 2) was actually from GK1 until I heard it. Then I was inspired to do a quick wikipedia search on Colonel's Bequest, Tulane University, and that era (the Roaring 20s) that inspired Laura Bow ... and I learned a few things.
But I think I came across a piece of amazing luck: Laura Bow's name always seemed familiar, but I could never place it. Now I came across this (from wiki):
=========================
...an American actress who rose to fame during the "silent film" era and transitioned successfully to "talkies" during the 1920s was named Clara Bow. She came to personify the Roaring Twenties and is described as its leading sex symbol.
=========================
So that's where Roberta got her inspiration for Laura's name!
