Oh! I thought you were talking about Obsession! Hoosiers is a good choice!
Yeah I had a hunch you were thinking of the Herrmann but the Goldie is surely of the most traveling music kind. 
Hey JC, JC you're all right by me but man oh man it's only been--yikes--nineteen years. Perhaps this will refresh your memory (as the FSMessageboard gets all whirly & swirly...
...finally, the picture clears...)
***
(We see the front end of a large vehicle in the distance and it’s bearing down directly on us, moving fast. Suddenly it’s right on top of us, and then it passes by with the screeching sound of brakes being applied a little too late for their own good. In the vehicle’s wake a solitary person is revealed to be standing on the sidewalk in front of a ballpark, and the not-so-young-not-so-old-looking man is trying, in vain, to brush and blow away--with self-mocking exaggeration--the cloud of dust emerging from the sudden stop. First the sound of brakes screeching and then gears changing, and now the length of the vehicle reappears while reversing course. It finally stops--directly in front of the bystander)
DRIVER: I want you to get in his face so you can tell me what gum he’s chewing!
BYSTANDER: What the (searching his memory)--Dentyne.
DRIVER: Huh?
BYSTANDER: He’s chewing Dentyne!
DRIVER: Mr. C.
BYSTANDER: Mr. L?
HOWARD (shaking his hand): A pleasure. You got them cassettes?
JIM: All a hundred seventy-five.
HOWARD: You know which one’s going on first…YOU KNOW which one’s going on first!
(Jim reaches not into bag, but shirt pocket; pulls out and then flashes box with cover marked HOOSIERS MUSIC COMPOSED AND CONDUCTED BY JERRY GOLDSMITH, and beams)
HOWARD: Hop in! (claps and rubs hands in anticipation, and then exclaims out loud, to himself, a la Ralph Kramden--) PUT IT ON, NAWTON, LET’S GO!
(Jim dumps his stuff in the back, climbs aboard next to Howard; they pull away and head for the open road, leaving the ballpark behind; once on the road, Jim slips in the tape and the two of them enter highway paradise)

Knowing how many weirdos are online, you'd think a google image search for "damn hoover" would show something amusing.
Instead, it's umpteen umpteen's worth of boring pictures of (very big) civic architecture, fer gawd's sake!
Surely SOMEONE'S made some memes about an accursed vacuum cleaner!
