Favorite Game Show Piece of Music (Non Theme)

[TonicBH]

The plentiful number of cues in TPIR and Double Dare, plus since some are doing "show themes used for prize cues on other shows", I nominate the 70's Split Second theme as a All-New LMAD car cue. I also like the contestant cues on the 70's-80's B&E shows (Joker, Tic Tac, Bullseye).

I've always liked the prize music used on the Barris shows of the '70s.  It was great to finally hear them all in the clear when that CD of the themes became available a few years ago.

On the page with the Treasure Hunt music clips, I tried to find my favorite, but didn't.  It was the one that was also used coming back from the first commercial break on something that used to frequently air called "Ruff House": How to prosper during the coming bad years" or something similar.

Two other favorites I can't forget:  the It Takes Two think piece from the NBC version (which I use to this day whenever I need to time something for 10 seconds) and the 1968 Pay Cards! piece they played going into the first commercial break after a round was played.

Chuck Barris' album, as described by Mr. Ottinger

I've found the Treasure Hunt theme makes a good alarm.

I checked Matt's site, too; I knew about the album but somehow had missed the CD reissue.

Thanks for pointing me to the reference, though.

if you love the prize, commercial cue, background music you better check out TQ's game show theme page.  He's added over SEVENTY bits from the Las Vegas era of "Lets Make A Deal".  Somewhere around 40 is also the music used on 1970's "Split Second" when Jay was describing the car as the contestant walked over to it.

Add my "Little Russian Song" vote to the rest.

The only one Treasure Hunt cue I wished the site had was the music they used for the "Big Check" win.  That marching bandish music they blaired with the air raid sirens.  I think they also used it when they were picking the box as well.

it was indeed the same music and it's a shame nobody seems to have it.
