Re: Closing theme music

Right.
I used to tape these end credits onto cassettes!

Re: Closing theme music

Ah. Ok. I'll need to revisit the early episodes and record the music! Thanks David and Stephen. Maybe one day there'll be a decent soundtrack compilation. The majors are squeezing every other vault dry....

Re: Closing theme music

Well the specs on the upcoming Blu-Ray release indicate music/FX tracks for each episode so it will be possible to rip the music for each episode (albeit imperfectly).

I always wished Gil Melle's theme had become the "default" for the series. I really enjoyed it over the end credits much in the way that Jerry Fielding had the default theme for McMillan And Wife.

Re: Closing theme music

Gah! Typical. We buy the DVD box as there was no sign of a realistic Blu-ray set. Same thing'll happen to Rockford. I'll happily rebuy The Dukes should that be graced with such a release. There's always something.
