If there was any doubt about the background music on the Macy's Parade on NBC, the Pillsbury Doughboy was ushered into the parade review area with an arrangement of the theme from "Camouflage" - a cue I've never heard before on the parade.

Milton Delugg is 90 and he still pumps the funk.

Is this available to listen to or watch anywhere? This, to me, sounds like game show geekdom at its absolute finest.

Which one, the old one or the GSN one from 2007?

The 1980 version, which was the only one Delugg would have been involved with. And it was a different orchestration than used on the program - Milt didn't have any of his horns on there, just the Cowboys.

Speaking of Mr. DeLugg, he turns 91 today.

As they said about him on MST3k, "He's delightful. He's delicious. He's DeLugg."

Still going after all these years...you might say DeLugg's the Don Pardo of the music world.
