Music played a major part in the overall experience of "Top Gun" This opening scene, with terrific editing] combines two musical pieces:
Then there was the romantic stuff.....
Finally, this great use of a classic song....

I've come to like the music used as the theme in Shadow Line [although the series was disappointing]

Based on the brilliant George V Higgins book "Cogan;s Trade" rhe Movie "Killing them Softly" used some very familiar tunes to great effect.
Notice that Brad Pitt is clearly firing blanks! All in all the film was a poor adaptation of terrific source material.

A major figure in movie music was John Barry. This documentary discusses much of his work....
I fondly remember the John Barry Seven on early TV music shows, and the documentary covers this era too. Great to see guitarist Vic Flick interviewed.

The TV series "Civvies" used music well:
Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms was used in a closing sequence, as well as being used in several other movies/TV shows. The piece formed the climax of "The West Wing" series two.

Never ever new that was Jeff Lynne ! Even Macca was`nt to be left out in the 70`s with T.V. Themes I never knew this show or the Jeff Lynne wrote this theme. What tv theme did Macca write. One of the best tv themes was this by John Barry. And i've recorded the Elo concert that was on BBC2 the other night.
