This NFL Films music of the 1970's combined with John Facenda narrating made watching football highlights one of the truly great things about that era.
I still have John Facenda playing in my head and still get goosebumps! I was born in '59, used to tape NFL action, This Week in the NFL, and everything else I was fortunate enough hear the voice of God. I'd play this stuff for the guy's I played with. My blood BROTHERS, my high school teammates, the guy's I went riding with, and everybody else who wants to be something.
My favorite NFL song, nothing else comes close. Best instrumental ever and takes me back to my youth in the early 70's watching the slow motion highlights. Thank you, Sam Spence for your great music and making wonderful memories for many boys, now men. If this doesn't fire you up, nothing will.
rules were different and better in the late 60s early 70s way better football game to watch .I don't even watch today s football. I would rather watch the repeats back then
As a Youth I would watch hours and hours of NFL Films, I would record every episode I could on VHS. I fell in love with the game because of NFL Films! Ed Sabol, Steve Sabol and the voice of John Facenda brought to life the history of the game and struck a passion in a child's heart! Watching & learning about the men who paved the way for the game that is the NFL was an outlet for a emotionally & physically abused youth to escape from reality and be at peace for a few hours with the men that ultimately became his heros!
Ah…remembering watching those NFL Films highlights on Saturday's from the previous Sunday games. The Over The Hill Gangs music with George Allen's Redskins team and the Dallas Cowboys making their comebacks. The early 70's were the best of times of NFL Football. Thank you Ed and Steve Sabol with the authoritative god like voice of John Facenda. And the great Sam Pence putting the inspirational music. God Bless you and RIP for all the memories you gave us.
There is a special relationship between NFL films music and listeners of the 60s and 70s. This song especially sums up the challenges of competition, the youthful imagination of taking the field, striving to succeed and, figuratively and literally achieving a goal. A treasure beyond any value.
Oh man, Early '70's. This Week in Pro Football with Tom Brookshire & Pat Sumerall would play last Sunday's highlights at around noon on a Saturday, with these fantastic themes from Sam Spence; this was one of the central themes. So psyched, we'd go out after the show and play glorious football like 12-yr old champions all day long. The '70's was a pretty damn good time for growing up.
The Quarterbacks long passes....the running back....and most of all it was in slow motion....watching some of the very,very best of all time....it was a great time for use as kids...
Oh! How I love this fabulous piece of music by the legendary Sam Spence! Priceless memories of the days when games were played on grass in the elements! I loved the good old days when the weekend highlights were on TV! 🏈
NFL Films has lots of great scores, but this one has got to be the most epic, motivational piece they made. When I hear this, I want to sprint 100 yards and tackle somebody.
One of the greatest instrumentals ever ! I could not wait until it was played on this week in pro football back in 1971 I got out my duke football and the song would be playing in my mind as I played football
Funny thing is, the 70s were when the Giants were so bad, yet even though I was and still am a Giant fan, I don't mind at all going back to the 70s when I hear this music.
@edward king, I'll give you a little more info to show just how crazy things were. I am related Vince Lombardi. My grandmother and his mother were first cousins. Anyway, back in the 60s, the whole family were Packer fans because of Cousin Vince. As a little kid, there I am reveling in Packer glory. However, when Vince left the Packers, the family had a choice, do we go Jets or Giants? Back then the Jets were coming off Super Bowl III and were good. What do we do? We become Giant fans, of course.
We used to try to jump over a hedge separating two back yards. The hedge was the defensive line and we would alternate between being Leroy Kelly and Calvin Hill - with these tunes as soundtrack. Of course, you had to not fumble the ball. Thanks for reminding me!
Classic NFL films song but it always makes me incredibly sad, I guess because it’s tied into my memory of My Dad and me watching NFL highlights and then he left me and our family.
@@bcmac4641 you clearly haven't seen Freeway Jim's awesome road videos. Its because of his channel I discovered this little gem that I sometimes play when driving on the backroads of Wisconsin hehe.
I first heard this when i was 10 in 1970 .watching NFL films and was blown away. Ive finally found it.I do miss john facendas voice though ,I kept a poor quality cassette tape of Superbowl 5 all these years for just this piece with johns voice narrating the highlight reel. I had no idea who this was or how to get it, it was early70s. Fast forward to internet era and here we are, I almost died when I found it. And what a piece it is.
Of all the NFL film music classics the one titled " the over the hill gang " must be considered one of the greatest of all time truly magnificent awe inspiring and very powerful all macho perfect for smash mouth football truly a mans game unlike any other sport period. Its truly on the shoulders of giants.'yours Roget Jay'.
"on the shoulders of giants" was an Isaac Newton quote: when asked by his associate how he knew so much, he answered, "if I'd come to know so much, it was by standing on the shoulders of giants".
This week in NFL was our only hi lite show, it was shown on Saturday's and this music with countless others from early 70s to this day still resonates. I am still in backyard running in slow motion with neighbor kid humming the great songs of Sam Spence.....GO BILLS
Deacon Jones, Merlin Olsen, Jack Youngblood, Hacksaw Reynolds, Nolan Cromwell, the recently departed Isiah Robertson. Great Rams D in the 70s. Tough football in those days.
Me in my den early to mid-70s in Northeast Ohio playing slow-motion nerf football with my brother and this song is playing like a loop in my head after having watched the weekly NFL highlights with Brookshire and Summerall. Didn’t get any better.
Thanks for this post. I grew up in the 70s as a little boy watching this week in pro football 🏈 with Tom Brookshire and pat Summerall doing a weekly synopsis a each game. The show was only 1/2 to 1hr but I waited for it like a kid in a candy store lol its all good
slowly spiralling football-john facenda voice-cold vapor like dragon breath from real football players-eyes staring at score board and clock-1974-75 awesome memories of the old real football players and missed
"On 3rd down a hard rush by Billy Ray Smith #74 forced a desperate pass from Morton. The pass was incomplete. But even worse was that Morton was called for intentional grounding and Dallas was penalized 15 yards. The longest march of the day was shrouded in failure. The Cowboys settled for a field goal. But again came away with 3 points instead of 7." -John Facenda Super Bowl V
As I watched these NFL Films videos way back when and listened to the music and narration, I lamented as to why these pregame shows and highlight shows weren't longer than half an hour or an hour. Now, there are hours upon hours of pregame, highlights and NFL talk and it's pretty much all a big pile of crap. Boy, I miss those old days.
+Grover Garver I hear you. My twin brother & I were 10years old in 65 so these song and the 1/2 hr This Week in the NFL was priceless to us. We'd be all fired up these songs and video, we dash outside and play tackle in the street/snow for hours. Priceless!
I would like to hear this played live with an orchestra. OOH baby! I get the chills everytime i listen, especially the trumpet at the very end, This was the best every Sunday watching N.F.L. films.This is why N.F.L. is so big today.
+eric cockerson This music took football to another level. Players became gladiators and Sunday was clash of the titans. Players covered in mud some of them bleeding, it wasn't just a game it was war. These were real men and deserved our respect.
Majestically evokes mud-stained images of scarred, bloodied gladiatorial men pummeling each other in the rain, in the snow, in the cold on December-dead grass fields in the decrepit gloom of dimly-lit stadia long since vanished. Iron men, heroic men. Real men. Sadly, the league, the game and the players this magnificent music celebrate no longer exist.
This is the National anthem of the NFL. There are other riveting /beautiful tracks played to our favorite player in slow motion making a play , that will forever live with us. ( Bobby Bryant returning and int. for a TD to the tune of Rainbows in the Endzone, 73 NFC Championhip Game)but The Over The Hill Gang track sets the standard for all the others.
This track is just plain epic... in my mind I can see a coalition of "washed-up" and "should've retired" players training out of their minds for one last run at the championship.
Every Sunday morning...This week at Notre Dame with Lindsey Nelson, then NFL game of the week with all this great music. Then at 12:30 half hour pre game show with Jack Whitaker on CBS. (Can’t remember NBC hosts) then in ‘75 the pre game went to an hour with Musberger, Cross, George. Now it’s just ridiculous with 4 hrs of pre game ANALyst’s, no great music.
i remember those were the days brings tears to my eyes the skins were known as the over the hill gang george allen didnt like to many rookies on his team
I wasn't even a wet dream when this song was around, but I still can appreciate a fine ass piece of music. Sounds a bit like something from a spaghetti western.
Quikanims Not quite my friend this was iron man football at it's best, with the Sunday gladiators. this music represents the spirit in which they played.It was win at all costs.
This NFL Films music of the 1970's combined with John Facenda narrating made watching football highlights one of the truly great things about that era.
When scoring a touchdown was enough!!!
It was must see tv on Saturday afternoon in the fall during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s
I still have John Facenda playing in my head and still get goosebumps! I was born in '59, used to tape NFL action, This Week in the NFL, and everything else I was fortunate enough hear the voice of God. I'd play this stuff for the guy's I played with. My blood BROTHERS, my high school teammates, the guy's I went riding with, and everybody else who wants to be something.
"NFL films Year in revue" shows during the summer were THE harbinger of Autumn!
I love this music. To me THIS is football 🏈 coming from someone who grew up watching modern nfl. I had no idea what great history this sport had!
My favorite NFL song, nothing else comes close. Best instrumental ever and takes me back to my youth in the early 70's watching the slow motion highlights. Thank you, Sam Spence for your great music and making wonderful memories for many boys, now men. If this doesn't fire you up, nothing will.
Exactly...kid of the 70's here...greatest time to be a kid for sure!!!
I could not say it any better. Well stated.
They should have an orchestra do this as a half time SB show
Honoring the enduring legacy of NFL Films founders Ed and Steve Sabol
Music is priceless to us older football fans
And a few of us younger men, 26 years old who still appreciates the ground and pound, and smash mouth defensive football.
I agree
rules were different and better in the late 60s early 70s way better football game to watch .I don't even watch today s football. I would rather watch the repeats back then
+houstoncrawford This may be my favorite NFL Films song.
ill take up as she rises
As a Youth I would watch hours and hours of NFL Films, I would record every episode I could on VHS. I fell in love with the game because of NFL Films!

Without a doubt the best piece of N.F.L. music EVER !!!!!!!!!!
I agree. Horrors of george allen leading redskins to victory over the cowboys in the nfc championship. The over the hill gang.
@@shannonofner9709 No shit !
The best NFL films song
The National Anthem of the NFL.
Not only the best NFL song, but the best song period, any genre.
This song brings me back to being a kid again in the 70s! This is the ultimate NFL films song!
I disagree : ‘ Up as she rises ‘ was the best recognizable NFL tune.
I always remember “Drunken sailor” from NFL Films.
Speaking of back in the 70's, Star Blazer.
When I played high school ball mid 70s I wish I had these to workout to.
@@sammyvh11 It does get you pumped up. Feel like want to put a helmet on.
Sam Spence was a major reason I got hooked on the NFL in the 70's
Tears in my eyes hearing this ☝️
6 brothers, dad. All of us with our own favorite team. No wonder my Mom was nuts. Greatest days of the NFL long gone....
Of all the music of NFL films has produced this to me is the very best of all the pieces !
Ah…remembering watching those NFL Films highlights on Saturday's from the previous Sunday games.

50 YEARS OF NFL AND STILL GET THE CHILLS AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY SEASON MUSIC IS EPIC
There is a special relationship between NFL films music and listeners of the 60s and 70s. This song especially sums up the challenges of competition, the youthful imagination of taking the field, striving to succeed and, figuratively and literally achieving a goal. A treasure beyond any value.
Always my favorite NFL Films tune!
Brings back so many great memories when I fell in love with the NFL as a kid.

You got it. The early 70s was high water mark of NFL Films muisc
Some of my fondest memories of watching that show, playing football and not having a care in the world! I get emotional listening to this stuff!
I remember those day too..... bring tears to my eyes....I really truly miss Saturday mornings and this week in pro football
The Quarterbacks long passes....the running back....and most of all it was in slow motion....watching some of the very,very best of all time....it was a great time for use as kids...
13 in 1972
What memories I have! I wouldn’t trade it for anything! I love being a kid listening to this and watching good ole Howard!
Oh! How I love this fabulous piece of music by the legendary Sam Spence! Priceless memories of the days when games were played on grass in the elements! I loved the good old days when the weekend highlights were on TV! 🏈
NFL Films has lots of great scores, but this one has got to be the most epic, motivational piece they made. When I hear this, I want to sprint 100 yards and tackle somebody.
One of the greatest instrumentals ever ! I could not wait until it was played on this week in pro football back in 1971 I got out my duke football and the song would be playing in my mind as I played football
This is taking me back to the 70's... Raiders, Dolphins, and Steelers!
Funny thing is, the 70s were when the Giants were so bad, yet even though I was and still am a Giant fan, I don't mind at all going back to the 70s when I hear this music.
@edward king, I'll give you a little more info to show just how crazy things were. I am related Vince Lombardi. My grandmother and his mother were first cousins. Anyway, back in the 60s, the whole family were Packer fans because of Cousin Vince. As a little kid, there I am reveling in Packer glory. However, when Vince left the Packers, the family had a choice, do we go Jets or Giants? Back then the Jets were coming off Super Bowl III and were good. What do we do? We become Giant fans, of course.
This would be the song playing in my head in my backyard as I "slow motion" ran down the field as a kid.
Exactly...we used to draw big helmets and nail them to the field. Like Super Bowl 1
We used to try to jump over a hedge separating two back yards. The hedge was the defensive line and we would alternate between being Leroy Kelly and Calvin Hill - with these tunes as soundtrack. Of course, you had to not fumble the ball. Thanks for reminding me!
I did the same thing haha
This is Holy Grail, classic NFL stuff !!
One of the best! A classic from Spence!
The best years of pro football growing up for me was watching highlights and hearing the misic in the background. I remember it like it was yesterday.
Me my older brothers would play tackle football in front yard in slow motion humming this song.... Fantastic memories that ill take to the grave......
Classic NFL films song but it always makes me incredibly sad, I guess because it’s tied into my memory of My Dad and me watching NFL highlights and then he left me and our family.
The crazy thing was we would go outside after watching this and play in slow motion!!! lol lol lol...GREAT TIME OF MY LIFE!!!
Brings back the days of the fearsome foursome. The steel curtain and the no name defense.
And the purple people eaters.
Steelers highlights from the 70’s SB teams brought me to this song.. goosebumps 💪🏾😉💯
Tha super steelers
Steelers tha greates
Love this tune. Sounds like music from a western movie.
Man I love the old NFL logo, has a lot more character to it just like the old NFL.
While listening to this, I'm just visualizing the 70s football players tackling, catching, running all in slow motion, like what NFL Films show.
Who would dislike this? This is an awesome piece of music!
Some dip stick would...
@@bcmac4641 you clearly haven't seen Freeway Jim's awesome road videos. Its because of his channel I discovered this little gem that I sometimes play when driving on the backroads of Wisconsin hehe.
LEGEND
Retards? Or do I have to be politically correct...
How in the hell can you not love this music , there's nothing electronic....maybe the bass.
It brings back how my brothers and me used to enjoy this outstanding " NFL Action" music as teenagers😃
I first heard this when i was 10 in 1970 .watching NFL films and was blown away. Ive finally found it.I do miss john facendas voice though ,I kept a poor quality cassette tape of Superbowl 5 all these years for just this piece with johns voice narrating the highlight reel. I had no idea who this was or how to get it, it was early70s. Fast forward to internet era and here we are, I almost died when I found it. And what a piece it is.
I Play this often and very loud and i transform into a superhero. Tell me this isnt the greatest piece of inspirational music ever
I Immediately return to my teen years in the 1980s when I hear this.
This music made football highlights great added such drama and emotion
I love this TRUE FOOTBALL MUSIC...SAM SPENCE, YOU ARE TRULY ONE OF THE GREATS..
This music exemplifies the strength of the NFL and the great game of football. BOLD,POWERFUL and ENDURING!!
Of all the NFL film music classics the one titled " the over the hill gang " must be considered one of the greatest of all time truly magnificent awe inspiring and very powerful all macho perfect for smash mouth football truly a mans game unlike any other sport period. Its truly on the shoulders of giants.'yours Roget Jay'.
I totally agree. Its been my favorite for 40 years
Agreed
Amen
"on the shoulders of giants" was an Isaac Newton quote: when asked by his associate how he knew so much, he answered, "if I'd come to know so much, it was by standing on the shoulders of giants".
Brings back the horror of george allen....and the over the hill gang beating dallas.....billy kilmer are you kidding...
This week in NFL was our only hi lite show, it was shown on Saturday's and this music with countless others from early 70s to this day still resonates. I am still in backyard running in slow motion with neighbor kid humming the great songs of Sam Spence.....GO BILLS
My personal favorite. I can still see Franco Harris running in the mud on a long TD against Cleveland during a 1972 "Pro Football Weekly" segment
I want this played every time I arrive at the office in the morning.
lol
Now your talking.
i hear u. me- i need this one when i first wake up in the morning...
The Old NFC Central
Outdoors
Cold weather
Black and Blue slugfest
@@rachmanwalker4145 God Damn right.
Deacon Jones, Merlin Olsen, Jack Youngblood, Hacksaw Reynolds, Nolan Cromwell, the recently departed Isiah Robertson. Great Rams D in the 70s. Tough football in those days.
SAM SPENCE A TRUE A MASTER THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT MUSIC
For anybody that knows me, I want this played at my funeral.
got "Rainbows In The End Zone" tagged for mine
Me in my den early to mid-70s in Northeast Ohio playing slow-motion nerf football with my brother and this song is playing like a loop in my head after having watched the weekly NFL highlights with Brookshire and Summerall. Didn’t get any better.
This was always the the first tune they would play in the introduction of the game being highlighted on NFL's Game of the Week.
Rest in peace Mr. Ed Sabol in The Almighty's Everlasting Arms !
this song is truly beyond all other football highlights, song
This music I classic I I remember the 1970s the Vikings playing in ice and snow and that music in the background with my man John Fancenda
Friday night's watching this every week when I was a kid. Rings back a lot of good memories seeing all the legends play. Now that was football.
I have fond memories of watching This Week In The NFL with Pat Summerall and Tom Brookshier and their narration along with this iconic music
This makes me nostalgiac for the 70s and I wasn't even born yet.
Thanks for this post. I grew up in the 70s as a little boy watching this week in pro football 🏈 with Tom Brookshire and pat Summerall doing a weekly synopsis a each game. The show was only 1/2 to 1hr but I waited for it like a kid in a candy store lol its all good

Wasnt he the best? He somehow made football seem like education, it was football college every week. John Facenda University.
Sweet
John Facenda. The voice.
Yep I can picture that clip too…Morton throwing the ball to no one and the Dallas offensive lineman looking at the ball like what was that ??
You can just hear his voice.
I see Johnny Unitas dropping back to pass in his black high tops
I see jackie smith dropping td pass against Pitt
@@bcmac4641 "Oh, bless his heart; he's GOT to be the SICKEST man in America..." 🙂
I see Roger Staubach leading a game-winning drive against the then Redskins.
When I was competitive a lifetime ago, be it golf, bowling, anything, I used all these songs to fire me up. They worked too!!!!

+Grover Garver I hear you. My twin brother & I were 10years old in 65 so these song and the 1/2 hr This Week in the NFL was priceless to us. We'd be all fired up these songs and video, we dash outside and play tackle in the street/snow for hours. Priceless!
I want the 50s back
+John Craig No John, this is strictly 70's. We cant' spread ourselves out too thin.
Actually from the late 60s to the mid 70s.
Born Feb 3. 1964. 2 Hall of Fame QB's born on Feb 3...only such day out of 365. But not my foolish tail. Children dreamt to this music.
Mike Curtis and the entire Colt Defense decided today is their day....
Mike Curtis should be in Canton those dirty B***ards. Rip Mike
Rest in Peace, Ed Sabol....
Good stuff. Great workout music.John Facenda hall of fame 👍👍
Belongs in the NFL Hall of Fame !!!! For REAL !!!!
I'm 19 but I can feel the nostalgia in this song. George Allen's Redskins, the Purple People Eater Vikings
I would like to hear this played live with an orchestra. OOH baby! I get the chills everytime i listen, especially the trumpet at the very end, This was the best every Sunday watching N.F.L. films.This is why N.F.L. is so big today.
hell yeah! i see teams running in slow motion everytime i hear these classics....
+eric cockerson This music took football to another level. Players became gladiators and Sunday was clash of the titans. Players covered in mud some of them bleeding, it wasn't just a game it was war. These were real men and deserved our respect.
+SLYSPYHIWAY90 More than likely you'd be disappointed. You know it won't sound the same. There can be no improvements to this track.
+6400az You may be right my friend for this is truly perfection.
The best either I was young or this just was the best.Watching the clips on Saturday couldn't wait for Sunday.Dont even watch anymore.
Wonderful piece of music! What a contrast to Howahd Cosell-HE COULD GO ALL THE WAY, etc.
The NFL should get an orchestra and play this arrangement along with all the other ole music for their superbowl halftime show.....
This is one of my fav old school themes!
Majestically evokes mud-stained images of scarred, bloodied gladiatorial men pummeling each other in the rain, in the snow, in the cold on December-dead grass fields in the decrepit gloom of dimly-lit stadia long since vanished. Iron men, heroic men. Real men.
Sadly, the league, the game and the players this magnificent music celebrate no longer exist.
Thank you so much. This was always my favorite piece of NFL Films music.
Great tune, defines the momment in the trenches
I remember this from "This week in pro football" circa 1970 and Tom Brookshire saying "as Baltimore rolled over Buffalo 43-0".
“Twisting through the Colts like two Texas tornadoes: Walt Garrison #32, and Duane Thomas #33, proved the worth of Landry’s tactics”.
THIS would be a GREAT piece to describe the winning touchdown for Minnesota vs New Orleans !! Just PERFECT !🏈🏈🏈
My favorite track is "Game Plan for Sudden Death," but this is high up the list too.
Kenneth Hall 😁… MINE TOO.....but THIS gem is a VERY close SECOND !!😁🏈🏈👍👍
Sam's best, I used to run pass patterns and with the ball playing with my buddies humming this song.
This is 🔥🔥 🔥🔥 🔥🔥 🔥🔥 🔥
This is the National anthem of the NFL. There are other riveting /beautiful tracks played to our favorite player in slow motion making a play , that will forever live with us. ( Bobby Bryant returning and int. for a TD to the tune of Rainbows in the Endzone, 73 NFC Championhip Game)but The Over The Hill Gang track sets the standard for all the others.
My friend you have great taste and you are so right . I feel if this track does not move you well ,well there's something wrong with you
Back when not so many younger players were stars in the league, the veterans showed them what the game was all about.
This track is just plain epic... in my mind I can see a coalition of "washed-up" and "should've retired" players training out of their minds for one last run at the championship.
This is one of my favorites also!
This also would be a great song in a western movie with maybe the same title, "The Over The Hill Gang"
Every Sunday morning...This week at Notre Dame with Lindsey Nelson, then NFL game of the week with all this great music. Then at 12:30 half hour pre game show with Jack Whitaker on CBS. (Can’t remember NBC hosts) then in ‘75 the pre game went to an hour with Musberger, Cross, George. Now it’s just ridiculous with 4 hrs of pre game ANALyst’s, no great music.
This is my ringtone on my phone.
I remember this tune as Facenda described the jaunts of the Chiefs Eddie Podolak in the weekly show in the early 70s.
i remember those were the days brings tears to my eyes the skins were known as the over the hill gang george allen didnt like to many rookies on his team
Its in my will when I die this must be played at my wake!
I remember this song being a Highlight record sold in Denver. The Year of the Broncos '77 season
The song playing in your mind when you went out to the playground to reenact what you just saw on the highlights. 😂
I wasn't even a wet dream when this song was around, but I still can appreciate a fine ass piece of music. Sounds a bit like something from a spaghetti western.
Quikanims Not quite my friend this was iron man football at it's best, with the Sunday gladiators. this music represents the spirit in which they played.It was win at all costs.
SLYSPYHIWAY90
I know, but tell me you couldn't imagine hearing this in an old Clint Eastwood movie during a mexican showdown.
Quikanims Youv'e got a creative mind. I hear ya , and what a showdown it would be.
+Quikanims No, no friend. Eastwood didn not play ball in he 70's. By definition, he was NOT Facenda/ Spence worthy.
I used to like to see the players, play in the rain, mud, slop and snow😄
Lucky wilson. Here comes the 1 thats SUPER. having an awesome year📡
madden needs this music back!
