Thanks, Pam.

I've seen the Prisoner but not the Secret Agent Man series. Here's the credits with the song:

Then there was another Danger Man theme with harpsichord.

Sometimes I wonder whether we were all exposed to more British TV than others simply because we lived near Windsor. I remember watching shows on Channel 9 that they'd never ever play in the states. There was one on futurology that I watched compulsively. I wish I could remember the name. "21st Century"?

THE PRISONER - 6 ALTERNATE THEMES - Pick Your Fave

I would have picked the "I Spy" theme except I have to admit the final one that stuck was best.

TILLICUM - [[The theme song from Here Comes the Seventies TV Show) - by Syrinx.

This tune has been haunting me for decades.

**Now&then** · September-28-15, 06:18 PM

Does this count as haunting? Because that is what I was enjoying a moment, ago.

Here are my faves from this historic era of freedom, expression and rebellion.

The Band, Canned Heat, Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young, Creedence Clearwater Revival and a snippet from Richie Havens.

Oops. We made a wrong turn.

Mariah Carey does a good job of one of my Christmas favorites: Oh Holy Night

Besides endless Christmas music, just re-discovered Francis Bebey - late 70's African proto-house. Great stuff if you like early Krautrock/Musique Concrete-type stuff.

**Honky Tonk** · December-25-15, 02:16 PM

V 98.7, HD-1. Whatever you're thinking, I like their style of Christmas music. It's tripping without being too commercial or schmaltzy.

He also wrote "Eve of Destruction" and did some Dylanish things on his solo albums, but I like
the poppier ones best.

I just found out PF Sloan died in Nov.

Mozart. Beethoven. Vivaldi. Maybe a little Leroy Anderson or Andrew Lloyd Webber. But I'm a fossil of the past as my 80th birthday approaches in this new year. There has been little decent new music since that Presley fellow recorded "That's all right, mama". [[Oh. Happy birthday, Elvis!)

**Pam** · January-11-16, 07:43 AM

Guess we have to throw on some Bowie today. RIP David.

So Wreckless Eric, anybody remember him? Stiff records artist in the 70s, still performing. Anyway I was reading his autobiography and found out he went to Hull art college with Lowell's friend Stephen Goodfellow and they were briefly in a group together.

Here's one of Eric and his wife Amy Rigby:

I just found out that Cynthia Robinson from Sly and the Family Stone died a few months back.

Keith Emerson also died. ELP wasn't my thing but here he is abusing his keyboard at the Isle of Wight Festival:

Awesome one above, JBMcB. Ever since, "What We Do in the Shadows", this song passes through my headhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpoPY2YrOt8. Yet, now, this one struck me, recently, and I really regret selling my CD for cash. Also, it sounds a bit like this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEDS3t6VkxE.

**Jimaz** · April-06-16, 07:51 PM

I thought Ray1936 might enjoy this playlist: A classical playlist.

I can remember in the 1960s when ABC News would traditionally open each night's news with Beethoven's Symphony No.9 — nationwide to a [[mostly) captive audience.

That had to have had an effect of some sort on the entire country.

**Pam** · April-07-16, 06:16 AM

Merle Haggard died. Here's one of his hits:

I have zero expertise in this subject but today I encountered this related video:
