First guitar version was used for the film The Walking Stick (1970). John Williams' instrumental version used as the theme in "The Deer Hunter" movie (1978) became a UK Top 20 hit. Same year another instrumental recording of Cavatina by The Shadows and Hank Marvin on electric guitar made the Top 20 in the USA and #9 in the UK singles charts.
