Ever since I was a small child I've been enthralled by the music of The Price Is Right, especially what I call the 'Golden Era' (1970's and 1980's).
It holds top tier among the warmest and fuzziest of all things warm and fuzzy in my nostalgic heart. This recently led me down the rabbit hole of trying to find as many pieces of this music as possible and putting them into a collection of sorts, with images from the era completing the visual aesthetic.
The Price is Right uses well over 500 music cues in its lineup. Along with several packages made with the show, other cues from other shows and stock sites are also used. More recently, remixes of old cues are currently used.
Walt Levinsky composed for Score Productions, a well-known production company specializing in TV music. Levinsky is credited on a 1972-1976 album of music cues for The Price is Right, which includes much of the show's music that is still heard today such as the showcase showdown and various car cues. One of those cues, a Nashville Brass-style country music piece, became the theme to Family Feud.
The main theme of The Price Is Right is officially credited to Sheila Cole, even though it was composed and performed by Kalehoff. At the time, Kalehoff was working for Score Productions, under composer Bob Israel. Israel assigned the theme's Broadcast Music, Inc. publishing rights to Mark Goodson, the producer of The Price Is Right, so that Goodson would benefit monetarily. Israel assigned the composer credit to Sheila Cole Israel, his wife, explaining this fiction to Kalehoff as a "technicality." Israel assured Kalehoff that there would be future work with Goodson. This arrangement diverted millions of dollars of residual away from Kalehoff. Kalehoff was named as composer in the closing credits of the television show but he did not appear on the official BMI credits for the song.
Edward Woodley Kalehoff Jr. (born September 1, 1945) is an American television music composer who specializes in compositions for television.
Composer of about 1,000 pieces, mainly for television, his credits include many of the music cues used on The Price Is Right (although the 1972 theme is officially attributed to Sheila Cole and the Nickelodeon game show Double Dare; a music package for ABC Sports that updated and expanded the Monday Night Football theme; the 1991 theme song for Labatt Blue Jays/Expos Baseball on TSN in Canada; music for WNBC-TV's famous 1992 promotional campaign "We're 4 New York"; and many television news music and station image packages used on stations such as WEWS-TV in Cleveland, WJBK-TV in Detroit, and WNYW-TV, WCBS-TV and WNBC-TV in New York City. The NBC Stations package composed in 1995 for WNBC was used by the station until 2003. Due to its long run as the music package for WNBC, it is widely known in the Tri-State Region. His most recent work is the new theme for the PBS NewsHour as part of a new on-air look launched on July 20, 2015.

Thank you! I find it fascinating that one song is called "Eric" and is from 1976, as my name is Eric and I was born in 1976!
Thank you!
God bless you!!
The new TPIR is garbage without any of this music in the background. Drew Carey sucks, too.
21:31 and 23:43 do it for me. And 54:28!
This music is as iconic as the show itself. I would love to own this music.
Me too ! This music (1972 through late 1980’s) IS my childhood - luv it.
@@locojohn6637the TPIR theme was used as is until Drew started hosting then they remastered it into the TPIR theme we hear today I also love the come on down music used from 1972-1975
After Bob's passing I've read a couple of comments online that made me smile, someone mentioned that Bob came as close to the dollar (100) without going over. It was also mentioned that he passed away on "National Dog Day"...... How beautifully fitting. ❤
i've always wondered what the music is that was played during those great entertainer showcases?
well what is that music?
because i like hearing it and it's driving me nuts that no one knows what it is.
@@bobojeda4895 Edd Kalehoff
@@stufferwhite who's that?
There will never be another model like Holly. She had such an amazing personality that suited the show better than anyone. Its such a shame what happened to her. Nowadays the models are just sans-personality boring droids.
This music is so Brazilian. Upbeat, but with a touch of sadness. Pass the Prozac!
❤😢 rest in peace, Bob Barker you are a legend 🙏
Phaser,
Pool Table Cue
Cue 79
Cue 19 are all addicting ,... Amazing Compilation, thank you for sharing 🙏
RIP Bob Barker, you’ll be missed and always remembered. 🕊️🪦
Starcrossed is just a killer and iconic track.
Especially when Janice was presenting a new car at the end..
I was obsessed with this show when I was a little fellow in the late 1970s. I suspect I was entranced by the colors, designs, music, and the fashions worn by the models. Since the end of the 80s, everything in entertainment and fashion has been so drab and dull. Even the cars today all look the same. I can't tell a Cadillac from a Honda any more. I miss the vibrant, bold colors, designs, patterns, and prints of the 70s and 80s.
the early 90s was pretty colorful too, although to be fair the early 90s was still basically the 80s. It wasn't until 1992 or 1993 that things started to become dull.
Wow, I thought I was the only one who thinks all the cars look the same now!
We were lucky to grow up in those decades. As we all know. And the nineties were the last great decade before the worldgot weird. Pre internet. Cell phones, cameras everywhere. Yes our nineteen hundred years!!!!😢
Feels like I'm home sick from school in the mid 80's.
The Price was like so magical back in the srventies and eigjties...
..😢
32:27 The perfect song cue for the show’s final airing on CBS TV City before moving to a new studio.
This is so groovy!
Showcase Cue #1 is my all time favorite
36:10 Your showcase contains prizes revealed as we take a trip down memory lane beginning with this collection of photo albums! The slap 'n seal set contains 10 bound albums each with a distinctive design. Simply peel back the page, slap in your photo, and preserve your memories for years to come!
Next, create memories of your own with this home movie camera! The Bell & Howell Autoload 309 come with 100 rolls of Super 8mm film to start you on your career as a director along with the 357B projector and screen. Treat your family and friends to a night of entertainment with your own personal cinema!
And of course you'll have plenty of time to film on your one week vacation to Australia! You and a guest will fly roundtrip coach from Los Angeles to Sydney for a 6 night stay at the 4 star Marriott Down Under where you see amazing sights as you watch the sun fade into the western Australia sky!
And this showcase of prizes from your trip down memory lane, can be yours, if, THE PRICE IS RIGHT!
Give me your bid, georgiaactivist!
Showcase Cue #2 is my alltime favorite. In it, you can hear the bass line snippet that eventually became the beginning of the Family Feud theme. Well done Edd 👏
12:25 Johnny Olson/Rod Roddy: “A NEW CAR!”
Great composition and continuity across all of the melodies. A masterclass.
19:03: A barbecue, and a new car! No, no, no, no, a lovely dinette group.
Great opening to this video- major nostalgia!
the horns signifying you lost are still the best soundbites from The Price is Right ☺ love this compilation!
RIP Bob Barker
Classic intro
Thank you for this. Great write up too
The best music a new car 😅

At 7:50
Johnny Olson: "Well, here we have a lovely anjour from the Michael C. Fina Company"
17:48 - Showcase cue #1 (1972) is my absolute fav!
Starcrossed is my theme song.

I see the original comment. Just giving a heads up. As for the cues.... Splendido is the one that gets me in tears, and I just don't know why. But it's my favorite.
Stuffer white, Come on down. Your on the price that just right
“A BRAND NEW CAR!”
❤ it
Why are they playing "Splendido" aka NOTHING BUT FURNITURE, and showing NOTHING BUT CARS???? (Apx. 55:00)
How did you find this?? So awesome, and cool listening!!!
The basslines are so killer!!!
So where do i find more music like this? That Muzak/Disco/Vegas Horns style?
Holy Crap "Phaser" is so damn cool!!!
Disco ??
This sounds more like straight ahead jazz and a little fusion, mixed with some pop elmements
32:27
Contestants Not Appearing On Stage cue
No Cliffhanger ?
