Never thought I'd see a day when the word "pimp" would actually enter a game show conversation. ;-) :-P

He just put up the entire, and I mean entire, Sheldon Allman "Let's Make a Deal" library, over 80 cues worth.

Yikes, man! Already seeing a mountain of themes here worth adding to my jukebox for the summer carnival when I'm running the money wheel.

Saw a couple themes mislinked with nothing there. Sad, too. I wouldn't mind having the Lingo themes. And I was so hyped for finding the shows I had asked about a little while ago, like the Press Your Luck pilot, Hit Man and Wipeout. Ah well, one of these days, they've gotta turn up.

And was it just me, or did the Long Pilot for Bullseye really bring new meaning to the term LOOOONG pilot? 16 minutes, AND disco lyrics?! You'd think you were settling in for Rapper's Delight or something. One thing's for sure: The closing theme is better, but I know that the interlude piece they played coming out of commercials belongs in there somewhere. I don't know if that one's ever gonna make sense.

But what a site! Kudos to TQ. I can hunt here for ages!

Which made the rounds of a lot of Hatos-Hall shows. If you look hard enough there you can also find the themes to "Three For The Money" and "Masquerade Party".

Wow...I don't know if this has been mentioned already, but T.Q. has the best version of the theme for Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? that I've ever heard anywhere...including on the actual show.

Is it different than what's on the CD that is (or was) commercially available?

I've noticed that he doesn't seem to have any misgivings about taking commercially-released tracks and posting them along with the rest. (c.f. Mole, The) Not that I necessarily have a problem with that, I don't think one's any more or less legal to do than the other, but it seems more likely that he'd get himself in trouble essentially posting entire CDs.

A time-based trader? Really? I was so impressed until I read that.

How would he feel about music to locally-produced high school quizzes?

Can't we just record somebody saying "F*** you" for 2:18, and label it as some rare theme that he doesn't have? Would he fall for it?

Jimmy Owen · « **Reply #67 on:** July 10, 2006, 07:59:50 AM »

I admit I'm not computer savvy, but can't you record these on Cool Edit or Adobe and have them for your personal use? Is there a quality issue I don't understand? At least you can hear them. Am I missing something?

First he's a "theme whore" and now this? A bit overly bitter over pieces of music, eh?

In other news, this one might have gone unnoticed, but he's even posted the original 1983 "Changing Keys" music, slightly different than the 1984 version.

He did? Unless I have the wrong file, it sounds like '84 to me. And I know what '83 is supposed to sound like.

I posted links to the long (what he has) and short versions of that theme on my site (look in the sidebar). Link's in the sig.

Yes, there are absolutely quality issues...the source MP3 is going to sound way better than a compressed-to-hell-and-back RealMedia file.

If the quality right as it is now is good enough for you, knock yourself out. Not for me, though.

The WOF 83 that he has up there is the original theme. The air version is looped to begin at :54 and then goes back to :02 at the corresponding point in the music.

The theme was rerecorded in 1984 to give it a little more presence and bring the tenor sax (which may have been played by Plas Johnson - I'm not entirely sure, but he was in the Mort Lindsey band at the time) a little more to the front of the mix. This is the version you hear on the game show CD.

snowpeck · « **Reply #73 on:** July 10, 2006, 10:49:09 AM »

Yes, it's definitely the 83 version, which was released on a 1983 single on the Zoo York label. Nightwalk was on the B-side... also different from the version released on 1984's "Escape" album.

Well, it's exactly like what you hear on the TV show, except it includes the fifth and sixth verses. So if that's what was one the CD, no; otherwise, yes.
