This version of this King Palmer piece was played by Jack Coles and his Orchestre Moderne. Coles was also a library composer, but unfortunately, he never did any work for Harmonic. He did library wor...

In 1963 this was used as the theme for the BBC news programme Spotlight South-West
Statistical Fact: This track is the longest library track William Granville Chapman wrote for a library music label, clocking in at 4 minutes and 20 seconds. The shortest track he made was an arrangement of Handel's "Grand Entrance" written under his real name for De Wolfe on DW 2711, clocking in at 16 seconds.
ZAZOO commercial 0:10
Not to be confused with the Steve Race Paxton cue of the same name.
That best music such as "Swinging Ghosts" and "The Happy Cobbler" was nicely and eventually played in some Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy.
This track has a similar melody to George Elliot's "Cordon Bleu" from Harmonic, and I quite like that. =)
Harry Sosnik - - from many Victor records of the 1930's, then musical director at Decca, later being Ernie Kovacs' musical director in the '50s for TV, and then an arranged/composed music cue like this one is something else entirely - - fascinating.
Fun Fact: There's also a version where Torch himself conducts his own piece with the Queen's Hall Light Orchestra on Columbia Records - D.B.2456.
Happy and cute cue
Statistical Fact: "Japanese Carnival" from the same composer and same record was the last track to have the Bosworth Orchestra credited until King Palmer's "Studies In Happiness" suite from BCV 1346, not counting re-issues of older shellac Bosworth 78s, though for newer Bosworth Orchestra credited tracks, the orchestra was likely conducted by Heinz Buchold. If one counts re-issues of older shellacs, then "Rotary Press" by Lew Vincent (AKA "Lunch Date") from BCV 1318 was the first track to use the Bosworth Orchestra credit, though originally, it was played by Louis Voss and his Orchestra.
I won't lie. You had a missed opportunity by not counting down to zero as the sixty seconds of the build-up pass by.
Generator House callback
I like how they didn't hide the dts logo, they're just like "welp let's keep the dts logo here" it's like the dts logo is a logomark or something
Can you upload Boat Train - Jack Tafler from FDHLP?
Thanks
Can you upload Stroll Thru Suburbia by Denes Gay from this album?
The blue guy on the right is supposed to be running fast for those wondering.
I really wish that the Sam Fox and Hi-Q music libraries could be restored. Carlin and Warner Chappell Music. One of my favorite composers from the Hi-Q library was Phil Green, aka Philip Green. I listened to one of his cues and used his tracks in my series, even the dramatic cues and shorts. It's a shame that 40% of his music is lost. I would really love it if somebody could release a copy of the track called "Agitato Mechanical" or "Light Agitato," but it seems like no one has a copy, not even on eBay. The records are priced at $59 and $49, which is a pain in the Ass!
I understand. Those Capitols are not usually known for being cheap or easy to find... =(
Specifically for me, the Capitols I'm hunting for are missing LPs with Synchro-Fox cues. Some records with tracks listed under the SF letter code have either KPM or Harmonic cues, but I'm mainly looking for records with missing Fox cues.
The Capitols I'm much more interested in are the ones that were either completely revised with new content, or removed entirely from the catalogue. The Omar ("MR"), OK Library and a few other composers like Henry Russell ("R"/"HM") and an unknown composer with the initials "TI" are among the many removed libraries from the Capitol Hi-Q catalog, and I wonder if there are any others we don't know about.
By the way, the original length for this cue was 1:29.
Robert Way also had his own music library for a while, Siri Music, which was active in the 60s and 70s, and distributed two libraries called Amfed and Norco for which I have no info on beyond the fact listings in Business Screen mention them, and one of them was Robert Way's music, and the other consisted of compositions written by Sam Spence and his wife, Friedl. They also distributed the Sonoton library for a while.
Runabouts: Dan Backslide will steal them, and no one will ever know. By the way, the runabout in the picture is the exact runabout seen in "The Dover Boys" as well.
Thanks! This was used a couple of times in the New Three Stooges.
Could you upload "Song of the Surf" from the same composer? It was originally released on Chappell C.340, and was used in Monty Python's Flying Circus episode 5.
The same guy responsible for the guitar riff in the James Bond theme.
And for playing guitar on the original theme to Crossroads, 1964-1985
Fun Fact: That live action hand in the picture is actually my hand.
👏🏼 😂
Angy Palumbo also goes by Angelo Palumbo as well.
Is that the radio from The Brave Little Toaster next to the gray one?
Actually, it's supposed to be the radio seen on Wildline Radio's profile picture. I added that as a tribute to him.

Ornamenty's referring to his "picture hat" when he says that it isn't a real picture hat for those wondering.
You know, I never thought I'd be bold enough to ask, or maybe I saw the answer and I just forgot, but what did you use to make the audio sound better than in the Internet Archive copy?
@@wildlineradiomusiclibrary7017 I use the center extraction tool on my audio restoration software.
A sharabang (Or charabanc) is a open-topped horse drawn vehicle or early motor coach, and was the early ancestor of the open-topped bus.
One of my favorite Steve Race tracks
Have you considered uploading tracks from the Pantoscope library? That was the other library Folkways cribbed material from for their background music LPs (both were under TRF).
Esta canción apareció en la película Mortadelo y Filemón contra Jimmy el Cachondo.
Looks to me like a cubist cello or violin. As always, a charming complement to the music!
What is the picture supposed to represent?
@@Lg78LibraryGuy78 This picture is supposed to be an homage to Pablo Picasso’s art, which the track title is also a wordplay on his name, hence “Pizzi-Casso”.
What does "Doughboy" mean in this context?
A doughboy is an American infantryman during World War I.
Fun Fact: This was not only Douglas Brownsmith’s last cue for Harmonic, but also his first Harmonic cue since “Continental Holiday” from CBL.359.
Recorded in 1952
Damaged
Thanks
nice to see you took my suggestion =)
You should make the background red on your title cards for BX tracks
Can you upload Nero Wolfe by A.North from this album?
Thanks
This is probably Johnny Dankworth's greatest library track in my opinion. There's a lot of fantastic elements in this track, including swinging brass, fun drums, and wonderful trombone, saxophone and bass solos as well.
