John Barry: The Persuaders

 

A real favorite for a while Game of Thrones

There were so many TV tunes that I hated to love - but did anyway
Several already mentioned by others...
- Mission Impossible Theme
- Star trek theme
- Peter Gunn (another from Mancini)
- Pink Panther (which is a love to love - permanently gorgeous)

 

IMHO the most classy intro ever made, by far

 

What a thread!

I love the bridge, when it goes all Bond.

Not my fave, but this is anthemic around multiple football grounds in the UK. Worth a metion.

 

Babylon Berlin - Zu Asche, Zu Staub (Psycho Nikoros)

 

Love this groove!

 

Ennio Morricone - Upon a Time in the West - The Danish National Symphony Orchestra & Tuva Semmingsen (Live)

Ennio Morricone - A Few Dollars More // The Danish National Symphony Orchestra (Live)

Jamming while watching TV is always nice. News themes are sometimes great (and can be challenging)

I remember learning to play this one on a guitar - timing drove me nuts.

and this is great too - well worth watching

The mysterious touch of this one always fascinated me,
although not being a fan of John Williams

Catch me if you can

A hero of my childhood, and a big influence music-wise

Captain Future - Christian Bruhn

Another gem from my childhood

Robbi Tobbi und das Fliewatüüt - Ingfried Hoffmann

Nice Thread!

 

Oh. My daddy's credit may be on this! Will check. edit: hmm. Not credited on S1 E1 anyway. And he was independent, not Beeb. So now I'm confused. I think he worked on one of the specials. If only I could ask him!
Plus I'm looking for the opening credits to ITV's Nature Watch, which was an award winning programme that had a lovely opening theme.
And my dad was working on that one too.

My gosh! It's in proper stereo!
This a first to hear for me!

The Series Gotta be land of the giants

Cartoons has to be Thundercats

 

Thanks for all the great theme music, some I did no know about, keep them coming. I love 80's T.V. Looking at the talent back then and the junk around now makes me sad how my generation has lost the talent. I was born too late...

 

Yes I had planned to do a separate one for movies but wanted to see how T.V. went first. Check it out here-
