- The longer version of the Triple M station identification, recorded from 2MMM-FM in 1981. This early version features Kevin Borich on guitar. The so-called Dr Dan theme borrows heavily from Mike Batt's Tarot Suite LP from 1978.
The more commonly played "short" version of the station ident was roughly 1.26-2.26 of this version. Many other versions were recorded over the following years but this remains my favourite.

OMG the memories Uncle Doug, Jono and Dano, Cranney. When life had no problems. Thank you Mark
Still sends shivers up my spine. That is SUCH an awesome piece of music. Thank you Mike Batt, and thank you Kevin Borich!
This version is my favorite...the short 1 minute station profile version brings back memories of hot summers in Sydney in the 1980's where great rock was the soundtrack
Legend. Icon. Radio Royalty.
Doug Mulray has passed away, aged 71. R.I.P Uncle Doug ❤
When the music was so good even the adds were a work of art.
Memories from when I was back starting high school & discovered Doug Mulray...what a legend!!!
Wow, that really takes me back to 1981, first year working after moving to Sydney. Great Memories, Thanks!
I always thought Kevin Borich recorded the quintessential version
I was just talking to my better half about Tommy & Phil Emmanuel, she's not big on guitarists but puts up with my rambles down memory lane. Then I remembered Kevin Borich, & she asked why the name rang a bell. I told her about the Kevin Borich Express & that I wanted to say KB played the riff on the MMM theme.
Thankfully the rabbit hole wasn't a long one. I found this & you confirmed my suspicions. Thanks for the full version, I can't say I've heard it aside from the iconic minute or so, & for confirming Old Timers hasn't kicked in yet 🤘
It still sends shivers down my spine. Surely the people who put this together are still alive. Can we give 104.9 in Sydney back to them? Back when Triple M had balls.
Haha. I played on the original session, it was produced and arranged by Jimmy Sloggett, based on The Tarot Suite by Mike Batt. Kevin Borich played the solo, which was copied from Rory Gallagher’s original solo. Kevin wasn't there on the day of the main recording, he overdubbed the solo later. Here's the original - czcams.com/video/MX-wR-mImng/video.html
@@woodleman Now that is stereo
1:27 is the bit you want....you're welcome
Back in the days of my home recording studio and Revox B77 & A78 reel to reel machines and the very early days of 2MMM, I managed to record, off the air, an approximately 14 minute version of this piece of music. Alas, my recording (and the Revox machines) no longer exist. I recall a very long solo flute lead-in section & significantly longer and more strident solo guitar at the end, (and no whispers - they are a derivation of subsequent cutdown radio edits). Would anyone have that ‘original’ Triple M longer signature tune to post?
Once again, because ' your ears have brains'.... Long live Uncle Doug.... 🙏
Yeah - Uncle Doug vs Kyle.... Because our ears do have brains.... Come back please. 🎶
Spot on.
Keep coming here and still bloody classic.😋
Searched for this. Yes - the original by far. Long live Dr Dan.... 😈👿👹
This is not the Triple m theme, this is Mike Batt which is what inspired the Triple m theme.
Introduction (Journey of a Fool) from the Tarot Suite album. Masterpeice of an album.
Perfection
In another life...
lol I had no idea the full version of this sounded like disco for the first minute or so... tho it makes sense because 1980 lol
On ya KB
Yah. Uncle. Doug. See. Why. Boy
Long live Uncle Doug Mulray....
I think I liked this more than the lineup lol
I cant say I like the 'long version' overall as its the latter part that I prefer.
Dieter Kleemann played guitar on the original.
