Some notes from the composer:
’Twas The Fright Before Christmas: This is a track I wrote and produced for a Holiday CD featuring John Kassir (The Cryptkeeper)…Amazing how John could float in and out of character, and even order lunch as the Cryptkeeper…ahhh good times...
Theme From America’s Funniest Home Videos: This is a medley I put together of the vocal theme song from the pilot episode thru the 9th season with Bob Saget. I then segue into the new ska theme (Noveau Ska) in use from 1998 thru today. I recall Vin Di Bona approaching me about music for the pilot. I just didn’t get it. Why would America want to watch peoples home movies? Boy, was I wrong about this one! AFV continues in primetime on ABC-TV to this day.
This was the theme for a series produced by Don Ohlmeyer prior to becoming the president of NBC-TV. Great series starring Mike Connor, the program gave a very real view of the worlds most infamous crimes thru surviving interviewees and reenactments. Everything from Arsenic to Zodiak Killer.
Your Show Of Shows-Produced by Lorimar TV, the old shows were repackaged for syndication. I was asked to do a “live feel” 50’s television theme. Sid Caesar called me after I delivered this, to say how much he loved it! ALWAYS answer your phone, you never know who could be calling...
The Paranormal Project- Produced by Rob Katz for Espresso Ent., This was a one hour pilot special for Discovery America. A lot of fun to work on as I channel my best poltergeist impression...
Chicken Soup For The Soul- The feel good show based on the successful book series, this is the Theme song. For the pilot we had the greatest cast, Martin Sheen, Ed Asner….
