Theme is good, but a favorite part of the music from that show is when a contestant loses the gold run and the clock hits zero.

I’d love to hear Doc Severinson’s or another live band perform it. There’s a lot that great players could mess around with.

It gets love from me, but the end of the first verse is missing something IMO. I feel like it needs either 1/16 notes instead of 1/8 notes on the trumpets, or a different instrumentation altogether. Maybe ditch the trumpet for that measure and put more emphasis on the electric guitar and Fender Rhodes.

It's among my favorites as well, along with

1970s ABC Password
1970s Concentration (Narz)
1980s Tattletales

I really like the 2 most popular Stormy Sacks themes: “Caesar’s Challenge” and “Hollywood Squares”.  Others that “slap” (as my teenage daughter would say): “Double Dare” (2018), “Finders Keepers” (Room Romp), and “Chump Change” from NYSI.

Also agree about “The Mad Dash”.  The opening, with that energetic theme, really does a great job at stirring up excitement and drawing you into the game.
