    I always dug the music to the spiderman cartoon from the 70's. Barney Miller...loved that bass line


  • check for this series:



    they're like 9 volumes starting from the 50s all the way up to like Seinfeld and Friend's era, and they even started doing a couple of cable ones too.

    For primetime UK shows you can't really beat Alan Hawkshaw's Grange Hill Theme and Keith Mansfield's Grandstand theme.

    Brazilian Telenovelas had the best TV music. If General Hospital had music like that I would stay home from work to watch.

  • I always liked the theme to The Rockford Files. Mike Post was killing it in the 70's.
