Geoff Love And His Orchestra - Your Top TV Themes

Who's TV themes are these? Oh they're mine.. or maybe they're yours. I'm not sure. Maybe whoever reads the writing on the cover can lay claim to this masterpiece.

It's very generous of Geoff Love to award these themes to us, just for going to Age Concern and paying 99p. Or was it 26 shillings and elevenpence? It was obviously a confusing time when decimalisation came in as that would equal £1.34 and 1/2p (ish) so I got a bargain there. Up yours Age Concern! You've been done!

Anyway, feel free to sample the world of mostly UK TV themes circa 1972 as provided by Mr Love. Sid James is prominent on the cover due to the presence of sitcom 'Bless this House' which was pretty diabolical from the bits I've seen. 'Crossroads' is here and again it was terrible but the closing credits were fun to watch.

All are fairly loyal versions and were made to quell the civil unrest that the TV theme hysteria of that year caused. Looting was widespread and so these records were strategically placed among the broken glass and overturned Capris. Eventually the public was back to its usual docile self and all that could be heard were the soft sounds of the theme from 'Match of the Day' emanating from unrepaired windows.
