 So she upgraded to the MG'98 cues, then?

whewfan:
MG 76 experimented with a lot of think music cues (some reportedly from The Money Maze) but only a couple of "new" cues actually stuck, while the others were retired. CNR and Gene would often comment on what they thought of the cues.

One of the think musics actually had the audience clapping along (perhaps because Gene liked it so much) so that one definitely stayed.

Particleman:
Is this where the long-time running "cowbell" cue was born?  Or did this come later.

I liked that CNR quite frequently joked about the show's theme - calling it "lousy" several times on the air.  I guess he didn't carry too much clout though - because the theme stuck throughout its whole run!

The first few months of MG76 aired on "Match Game Mondays" last year.  I don't think ANY of the experimental think music (the various swami / Persian / porno stuff) was kept.  I don't think the cowbell was introduced at that time but I could be wrong.
