Thanks,

 Hit Man was done by Score. 1980 LMAD "disco" theme might have been done by SHeldon Allman, but not sure.

It was actually by Stan Worth, which (I think) was his final composition written for a GS.

 I'm aware that Score did Hitman, but I'm specifically searching for the actual composers name who wrote the song.

 Thanks in advance for any help.

 I know this won't help matters but when I talked with Jay Wolpert two years ago, he didn't recall a specific person who composed Hit Man's theme.  He could only recall it being done by Score.

This ATGS post from 6 years ago has the name Chip Lewis, a name I'm not familiar with.

 The Las Vegas Gambit theme(which John C. did exhume for us a year or so ago at his erstwhile Game SHow Concert site), another Worth piece, made its on-air debut about a month after LMAD80 and its music debuted.

 It was reported a few years back that Chip Lewis is responsible for the Blackout and Rodeo Drive(series) themes

A search on ASCAP's ACE database reveals that indeed Chip Lewis composed both themes:

(If the link does not work, simply type in Chip Lewis with the "Writers" button selected).
