Kramer has a nosebleed and Jerry comforts him [this is the ending of a particular episode]... there is some sort of music playing while the comforting is happening :) obviously it relates to some movie/American genre?

When your knowledge of a subject can best be described as profound ignorance, consider not posting. The movie being referenced is Midnight Cowboy, starring Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman. The Episode is The Mom and Pop Store from Season 6.

Could have done without the snide comment. I thank the other posters for replying to this beef-jerky.

Besides that it was great to see there were others willing to assist in my quest for an answer.

it references a scene in "Midnight Cowboy" (1969) starring Jon Voight as Joe Buck. I believe the name of the Seinfeld epsiode is "The Mom and Pop Store"

That's the one. I remember that Kramer discovered the electrical problem in the ceiling of the mom and pop's shoe store when his head was tilted back stopping the flow from his bloody nose. And since he had given all of Jerry's athletic shoes to them, Jerry was wearing cowboy boots, a la Jon Voight's character.

...I believe that they were also on Jon Voight's bus...but they need to check the bite marks on the pencil in the glove compartment to make sure... (;

That's related to _Midnight Cowboy_, a really great movie. Jon Voight comes to New York with dreams of becoming a male prostitute. Unfortunately, the only clients he can get are male :-(
