I kind of lean toward Peter Gunn, but there are so many.
Mancini wrote it, btw.

Probably doesn’t count, but back in the early 70s Channel 2 news in Orlando used the great Traffic tune “Glad” from the John Barleycorn Must Die LP as their lead in music.

That is a pretty good one! You have to admit, they were on fire for television themes back then.

I’m old....so it’s a toss up between Rawhide and Have Gun Will Travel
Two great songs but I have to give it to Frankie Lane for Rawhide - what a voice. We played one of his songs (That Lucky old Sun) at my mother's funeral.
