Thank you!

22:40 I had to LOL. I find soothe really really hard to use. love track spacer though. It's nothing to do with fancy looks or the amount of money spent on a plugin, it's the result and the workflow that counts. And hopefully it doesn't hog as much CPU as soothe 2.

Amazing! I'm so happy I could help! Stay tuned, I'm putting out a video very soon about how I used Waves Curves Equator to help remaster my old, crappy CD!

You got that right! Rawr!

He sure was! Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!

Whoa, that's super-interesting! like, you met Mike Post??

@@palebluedotstudios Several times. I worked as a session musician in LA for years. Trumpet etc. I have a lot of history in the biz. MIke was introduced to me by a few people.

@@gregoryivesdolbyatmosmusic That's amazing. A career path I would have loved to have! Was it television/film work? I may have to hit you up for background some time. I bet you have some stories...(not that I'm after gossip or anything)

@@palebluedotstudios OK Some I may not share online as I try to stay out of that fray. It's just some fun memories of how people helped me get a start in many ways, but it was not an easy path. So many younger people I know want to "make it quick". The process is the fun part and glad I had that opportunity to do it that way. Many gigs that were not glamorous or fun, but I moved ahead. I did what I had to do to survive. Day jobs etc.

Mod Squad rules! Adding to the list. Police Woman, I'll have to look up... Cheers!

It's such a good show! I've watched the whole series a couple times since becoming an older person, and it really holds up. And good call on Neverending Story; a great song! Cheers!

Thank you!

Hahah! Yes! I'm about to meet My Dark Lord....thanks!

Wow, you really know your Post/Carpenter details! That's right: I forgot to mention Larry Carlton, whose guitar-playing is so wonderful. Or rather, I wound up editing it out for time. Do you think the piano was doubled with a rhodes? I had wondered if that was the case, although it sounded like a single keyboard instrument to me. But I should check out the re-recorded full version to verify. Cheers! Stay tuned for more, definitely going to cover Rockford, A-Team, and others!

@@palebluedotstudios Yup, been all over themes for 40 years. Yes, the opening sections (on the Tv sessions) are just acoustic piano. Then the Rhodes doubles and syncopates with the acoustic on the verse section. It's the same on Post's only 'official' release from 1982 (even though that was in the wrong tempo and didn't have any orchestra on it!) .

@@culttelevision Ooh, this is great intel. So are you saying you may know a thing or two about the recording of Rockford and others? I'll hit you up before posting.

@@palebluedotstudios Would be a pleasure. I also have an encyclopaedia library of every release from that era and helped license a few things to come back after laying dormant for 20 years like the Knight Rider soundtrack etc.

S.W.A.T. does kick ass. I think that actually was the first theme I ran down to my piano and played. Adding to my list!!!

So glad you agree! As for the re-recorded version, what often happens with TV themes is that they're written and recorded quickly, and to match the exact length of a 30-60 second intro. But then when the show becomes popular, they go back in an re-record a longer version. For me, they're almost always disappointing, because we fall so deeply in love with those precise arrangements, and how they're permanently synchronized with their matching visuals. This is an interesting thought; I might have to do a video on this. Cheers!

@@palebluedotstudios I'd love to see that!

@@kevinputry5655 Amazing! stay tuned. :P

THat's a good one! I personally never watched that show, or had a chance to connect with it. But it has a very strong foloowing, especially in the UK. I'll add it to my research list! Cheers!

Getting a LOT of votes for that! A real classic; a crazy, groovy, funky banger. Cheers!

Thank you so much! If I had my way, Accentize would be the industry standard. But then again, I like having my own secret weapons...

oh yeah? what's youre fave tv theme songs?

The Littlest Hobo! Are you Canadian???

Uh, yes please! adding to the list. I agree: I think theme tunes were SO crucial, and had become such a passionate art form, that I think we can truly say it was the peak era! Love it. Cheers!

Oh man, I hear you! I am 100% doing that soon. Vote in my poll! th-cam.com/users/postUgkxdTijfYs5MVQV43D10E8iQ7E4Gby1Ot-Z?si=RLUR7kmx6rry7I_z

It's both! You can use as its own app and load audio into it, or as a plugin. Cheers!

​@palebluedotstudios thanks for the quick response. I'm gonna try the free trial and see how it goes

@@revisethedream8406 Great, give it a spin! You can get amazing results, especially in tandem with AudioLens. Cheers!

It really is. I almost regretted putting it in the intro to this video, because it's so good! I'm gonna have to do an episode on this.

Amazing! Thank you so much! Stay tuned for more. Cheers!

That's an interesting angle with Jamiriquai! Yes, I do hear a lot of the 1979/1980 quality in his music. And he definitely straddles the line between genius and theft, haha. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! It was a real labour of love, stay tuned for many more! Cheers!

Yes, I'm getting Dallas a lot! And that was the first prime-time soap opera I ever watched; love that theme. It's on the list!

Oh, it really is! That is also a Mike Post/Peter Carpenter number!

That's a very unique suggestion! And it's a good one. I'm more of a Buffy guy myself (Angel felt like one show too many at the time), but this is a great track. Cheers!

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm just using the popular colloquial term for ease of understanding. Although the dictionary does list one definition as "a musical composition suggestive of a song." But you are correct. Cheers!

My pleasure! Thank you SO much for watching! Cheers!

Hahaha, wow; that's a deep reference! I love it. That's a fantastic theme. Would be a good opportunity to explore the luxuriant chord structures and arrangements of the 1970s. Added to the list! Thanks so much for watching, cheers!

Sandford & Son and Good Times: excellent suggestions! I remember running home after junior high to watch Good Times; love that show. Added to the list! Thanks so much for watching, cheers!

Yep, you nailed it. And once again, that's the Mike Post/Pete Carpenter magic! It's totally on my list; what a formative show for me. That'll be fun to break down. Cheers!

That is very obscure, and very cool. Never heard of the show! This sounds really amazing. I'll research it and add to the list. Cheers!

@palebluedotstudios appreciate you taking the time to reply Sir!👌🏻

@@jacko717 Always! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment! I respond to all comments, unless I'm more depressed than usual! Cheers!

Wrong version played 3:00 What a guitar solo...

What's "White on White"?? Rockford Files is definitely going to get covered..

Wrong version? Curious what you mean?

@@palebluedotstudios Lance White.

@@palebluedotstudios The version that was used in all episodes from S2 Ep eh 10 until the end. What you played was the edit of the siingle from 1975. Top 10. Single

That's the second vote for Sanford (it rules), and I've had many for Rockford. Pretty clear I need to break that one down. Cheers!

Wait: are you saying that the drummer Vinnie Colaiuta played slap bass on A.L.F. ?!??

@palebluedotstudios Perhaps he’s saying that Colaiuta slapped the bass player. 😁

@@victoza9232 Good move, Vinnie 😂

LOVE The Equalizer; it’s on my list (huge Stewart Copeland fan)! I don’t recall Midnight Caller…I’ll have to look it up. 80s?

@@palebluedotstudios late 80s into early 90s. th-cam.com/video/as8Elg9-J00/w-d-xo.html

There’s been tons of requests for Hawaii Five-0! Definitely on my list now. Of course I love that theme, but I didn’t catch much of that show when it was syndicated. And Peter Gunn…oh yes. A masterpiece! Cheers

​@@palebluedotstudios There is a proper remaster of Peter Gunn on Apple Music, it's probably on Spotify too. I have had a copy of the album, CD, MP3 since I was a kid (yep, old man here) and I still love it.

@@ranger_a6953 Old man here too. ;) And I'll always love the Art of Noise version too!

@@palebluedotstudios Oh wow. I completely forgot about that. Excuse me while I go dig that up :)

@@ranger_a6953 It's a real gem. But I'm an Art of Noise superfan. And it's actually Duane Eddy playing on it!

Another Mike Post masterpiece! It's on my list, I'm a total sucker for any of this stuff. Surprised no one's said Simon & Simon yet...

Thank you SO much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the new idea. Means a lot! Stay tuned for more, cheers!

This is a show called Gangsters? Don't think I know it...

Thanks so much! Amazing! Means a lot. Took me awhile to push this one out, and I'm glad it's connecting. More to come! Cheers.

You know what people forget? How cool Sammy Davis Jr. was. Great call, I always loved the theme; more than the show itself. I'll add it to my list! Love that you know this one. Cheers!
