dadofsix Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 [quote name='chriswareham' timestamp='1434919248' post='2803894'] Theme from World At War. Walked on stage to this at one gig and proceeeded to play the most agressive set I've ever done. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAvt8AewEBs[/media] [/quote] Yes! It still sends shivers down my spine when I hear it even to this day! Quote
4-string-thing Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Some more... The theme from White Horses. The soundtracks from Grizzly Man by Richard Thompson and Pretty much anything from The Wicker Man soundtrack, except the one they sing whilst dancing around the maypole, that's bobbins! Quote
Rikki1984 Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1434969288' post='2804188'] This is a great site: http://dwtheme.com/derbyshire/1963/ [/quote] Thanks for that - it was even more innovative thank I thought! Quote

lowdown Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Film Composer James Horner was killed in an accident yesterday. Fitting to put one of his themes in this thread. http://youtu.be/9AN04imFDK8 Edited June 23, 2015 by lowdown Quote

ianrendall Posted June 24, 2015 Author Posted June 24, 2015 Seems appropriate. James Horner RIP http://youtu.be/sofU3EMa4xc Quote
kev b Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 Lowdown, I had forgotten the Parkinson Show theme, we used to play that as an "off" at the end of each set! Quote

Rich Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Did anyone else listen to Friday Night Is Music Night on Radio 2 the other, errm, night? Celebrating 80 years of television, it was wall to wall TV themes all played beautifully by the BBC Concert Orchestra. Highlights for me were Grandstand, Hill Street Blues and Inspector Morse, but it was all superb. And I'd never noticed before that the Are You Being Served? theme had such a cool bassline! It's available on the iPlayer, highly recommended. Quote
seashell Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Perry Mason, The Avengers, The Persuaders And to bring us right up to date (the 80's), the music for Robin Hood by Clannad. :-) Quote
Japhet Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Nantucket Sleighride by Mountain was used as the theme to Weekend World (had to look that one up). 1 Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 No love for the theme for Bergerac yet? Quote

ezbass Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Not a great film, not even a great Bond film, but the score to On Her Majesty's Secret Service makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Likewise, the score from Dances With Wolves. Both the work of the brilliant John Barry; love those strings. Quote
keeponehandloose Posted October 30, 2016 Posted October 30, 2016 Barney Miller theme....was it 70s or 80s? Great bass line. Quote

ras52 Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 This... it took some rummaging as I could only remember it was a current affairs programme but not which one! http://youtu.be/95qLDc7zwYY Quote

bartelby Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 I went to see John Carpenter last week. 90 mins of his awesome film themes: Assault on Precinct 13 Halloween The Thing The Fog Prince of Darkness Christine and several others... Quote
lowland Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Fretless bassist on Bergerac was Dill Katz - one of those bits of trivia you pick up along the way :-) Cracking (old) thread with some great tunes. How about - Flambards, composed by David Fanshawe. I heard him talking about it on the radio once, the second half of the tune is the first half upside down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHIk2eeXjBg Quote

I thought it was 'Mo Foster'. Another one of my favourite Film Themes, 'Exodus'. The video says 'Henry Mancini', but the composer is Ernest Gold. Pretty rousing and dramatic.
