TV themes sound totally different out of the television context. Aside, perhaps, from “MASH,”
“The Jeffersons,” “Knight Rider” and “The A-Team,” which is the most badass TV theme
ever (I wonder if they're still wanted by the government), this crap is pretty horrifying, and it gets exponentially worse as the late '80s and early '90s come along. Written mostly by people who should be punished for having sought careers in music, this is the soundtrack to my own personal hell. So, it's strange to admit that the existence of this compilation is strangely comforting.
