Splendid Nick that just hit the spot

I have to say the production value of some of the Tube's contributors is impressively high 8-) 8-)

I wonder if anyone can remember the name of the current affairs programme broadcast circa 60's which ran the theme as heard at 1.50 in the clip as its signature tune?

I think it was 'This Week' a current affairs show which ran from the mid 50's up to 1992 - in various guises

Well Zulu I wish one of us could come up with the right answer!   The music is going round and round in my head and will not go away!   I have gone through Youtube, BBC Archives, the internet generally and still I cannot find conclusive proof of the programme that theme tune fronted.  I can hear it, see it and still not find THE answer!

It is all your fault Zulu if I lay awake all tonight with that blessed music going around, around.............endlessly!!    ;)

That was the title track but the album had the Karelia Suite Intermezzo, America (Copeland) & Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in D minor as well

There are three other parts to this post on the Tube on the first segment there's a take on Bernstein's 'America' from West Side Story I haven't listened to the others so far.

Impressive stuff recorded in the Fairfield Hall Croydon in Sept. 1968

Emerson used to drape a Stars & Stripes over his Lesley speaker & at the end of America, throw the knives at it. On the occasion that the Band I was with supporting the Nice at Soton Uni, one of the knives bounced out & when through the front of our Bass Cabinet (Selmer T&B)!

Funnily enough I have a pile of CDs that we borowed from my dad next to me and the Karelia suite was one of them. Time to warm up the valve amp. [smiley=evil.gif]

Quad perchance?

Sadly not.

A pair of home made monoblocks based on the Maplin Millennium (itself based on the Mullard five twenty).

I had one of those. Huge thing with a hefty gold coloured metal Selmer script logo.

Solid but elegant - hint of better days? 8-)

[Kevin Wood]

Mine's probably not as elegant.
