Score Productions, Inc. Demo Record (TV Themes)

Score Productions, Inc. was one of the most popular companies to supply music for television in the 1970s and 1980s. This demo record contains several of their popular TV themes and likely dates to 1979 or the early 1980s. The following text appears on the record sleve:

"Staying power in the field of television and film music is not easy to come by. It requires flexibility and an ability to move with the times. This album displays a variety of thematic material created by Score Productions, Inc. for many different assignments over a period of years. It ranges from our most contemporary efforts to themes that have become recognized as standards in the industry. However, thematic music is actually a fraction of our work, for we are primarily devoted to the creation of original scores. The premise has always been professional excellence and taste. Every project is a unique, creative challenge.

Included in the sleeve of this album is a more comprehensive list of credits to further illustrate the scope and diversity of our work. However, we should like to believe that all of our music conclusively speaks for itself.

Bob Israel, President"

Unfortunately, the composers of some of these themes are not currently known. Usually, a production would credit "Score Productions, Inc." for music rather than listing the composers themselves. Additionally, due to licensing and royalty arrangements meant to benefit Score Productions and/or a show's production company, the composers of record in a composition's ASCAP or BMI listing are not always accurate. Composer credit was listed in this video where possible, based on a combination of a show's credits, ASCAP/BMI listings, or interviews.
