Just thought I would share. It's so beautiful and the memories of watching this in the 60s and 70s.

Sure did bring back some memories, right down to the voice of the narrator at the end: “...The American Sportsman is brought to you by...”

Better even than ‘Love’s Theme’ , played as the intro music to tv pro golf coverage back in the 80s and 90s?

The fly fisherman reminds me of wonderful vacations in Colorado watching my father fly fish.

I was always partial to the Dukes of Hazard theme myself. 😉

As far as majestic goes, nothing beats the intro music to Victory at Sea

That was awesome. Now, do you remember what song CBS played for it’s golf theme? If you don’t....here it is. From the charles Bronson TV show opening.....I think you’ll recognize it:

How many celebrities could you name?
I caught Red Foxx at one point.
Bing Crosby, another.

“I dunno.. The Johnny Quest theme really got my motor running way back when.”

Best theme song ever.

American Sportsman was a close second.

Actually, I like every composition from the sound track from Band of Brothers.

Especially the track entitled Austria.

Everyday I think of my Dad who never got to enjoy a single day without war. As a consequence of his actions, I did.

Thanks Dad.

Sorry, but as far as majestic, there’s no comparison to this...

Oh, yeah. When Waylon started in, it was time to head to the living room.
If you type in ‘Best TV Show Themes’ you get things like Game of Thrones and Homer Simpson. Surprised they don’t choose ‘60 Minutes’. Tick tick tick.

Remember.. ‘The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat’. What a vast wasteland TV has become.
