...1960-1982. This is the fourth album in the De Wolfe "commercial" series, collecting many well-loved British TV and radio theme tunes specially remastered from the original tapes. The album's content spans the complete spectrum of vintage broadcasting. From cult comedy sitcoms such as "Man About The House" and "Never The Twain" to kid's favorites like "Vision On" and "Roobarb," to oddball obscurities like "Angling Today" and "Queenie's Castle," this is the first time that these 5 lost incidental themes have been collected together on one volume. Also included are some exclusive unreleased cues that have never seen the light of day before ("Henry's Cat"/"Delia Smith's Cookery Course," etc). The catalog of music libraries such as De Wolfe have proven a treasure trove of unearthed soundtrack material for fans of cult film and TV. De Wolfe Music is the longest running and most important film music resource library in the world, having scored the likes of Dr. Who, Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Sweeney, Shaw Brothers kung fu flicks, Emmanuelle, the list is endless. Top Dog has been lovingly compiled by Joel Martin of Quiet Village, who heads the De Wolfe commercial/reissue department, which also released the critically-acclaimed Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Infamous TV Soundtrack 1969-1974 (DWCR 003CD).
