Worst Music?
Hastin:
Donnymid soundtrack/package was really bad. Like a early 90s techno song released a decade late.

As am I - and for its prize music. Does that exist in the clear somewhere I've missed?

1974 High Rollers had enough in it that it could pass for his demo reel.

Absolutely. That's another one of my favorites, but it's goes all over the place at times.

At least High Rollers had a musical theme running through the entire piece, even if it went off in different ways.

It sounds exactly like the sound of my washing machine in the '80s when it cycled down from a spin cycle. And I still hear it in that music today. Every. Damn. Time.

You had a weird sounding washing machine.
I've always thought that extra sound was a whistle, like a referee's whistle with a ball bearing in it.

Though I did a little work for Blockbusters, I've no idea how long Bob Cobert had to compose, arrange and record a music package. My fading memory says it went into production in earnest (having been green lit) about six weeks before it debuted. That means construction was started on the set and I assume the music dealt with.
What I don't know is how long it would take to produce a music package under ideal circumstances, and whether some of the music companies had tunes already composed and arranged in the event of a rush job. I'm under the impression that the Password Plus music was done on rather short notice. I remember Howard Felsher saying he "hadn't done a thing" about music, after I was hired on December 11, 1978, about 2 weeks before the first rehearsals.
