Any chance anyone ever saw the music video to Metallica's 'One'? That one got deep into my psyche and in fact influenced my obsession with World War 1 decades later.
But those were my first images of World War before learning of WW2 in high school.

Granada's "All Our Yesterdays," was my "History Channel".

A couple more notable (in my opinion) omissions.
Hill Street Blues (with Larry Carlton on guitar.) and this is a rather "special" version.
Who Pays The Ferryman is another we watched as a familyl. My dad boughrt the single as I remember.
M*A*S*H* - Peter Gunn - Rawhide - Bonanza - Ashes to Ashes (which always reminded me of Python Lee Jackson's "In A Broken Dream) - The Sopranos - Twin Peaks - The Persuaders - Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased) - The Prisoner - Every other sixties./seventies theme featuring a clavinet (The Champions, Department S, Danger Man, etc.) - the list goes on.
And I'll leave you with this beauty to finish with...

Sorry, and all that, but a whole load of Classics are being neglected:

Callan and Danger Man took me right back to those years. Some great themes there.

No Thunderbirds or Stingray I wanted to use this as a opening theme music to coming on stage

I used to wonder about the rest of that.
Waiting for the double cd All The Colours Of The Spectrum from Switzerland. This is on it:
Dear Mother Love Albert. Bit of a forgotten item. Rodney Bewes was a sales rep for a sweet company: Tomlinson's Toffees. He drove around in this Austin A30 van with a HUGE toffee on the roof. Garfield Morgan (Sweeny Boss) was his boss. Was on ITV. Shows it's age, 51 a bit. Theme's better than I remembered. He's singing on it.
Spot the Garrard Zero 100 S

For some reason Barry's Nantucket Sleighride connected two neurons (yes, both of them) in my brain and this memory popped out.
Then there was this...
Which of course reminded me of another nautically inclined theme...
There was this one too...
Which became this ...
And has ended up as this...

This Week is from the Karelia Suite by Sibelius. Yes, the Intermezzo if I recall correctly. The Nice did stonking version of it too, on Five Bridges, which also featured Tchaikovsky's Pathetique from trhe 6 th, and a bit of Brandenberg mixed up with Dylan. Carl Palmer and Keith Emerson featured it in their stage shows too.

Written by Ray Davis, and it sounds more like him on the end credits. I always thought it was him.

I used to love Budgie. I even had a "Budgie Jacket" when they were popular. Iain Cuthbertson was great as Charlie Endell too. The general opinion is that the 'A' side is the Kinks under a false name, but the 'B' sided definitely isn't. "Nobody's Fool" definitely sounds like Ray singing, with Dave as the second vocalist.

Aye. It was a standout for me too. Never had a jacket, though. Ian Cuthbertson was classic. It took me years before I could watch him in anything else. I just wanted to see him as Charles Endle Esq. in everything he was in!
