"Dude" is a good example, as is the intro to "Green Acres." I really don't see anyone else pulling that one off as well as he did.<br /><br />Speaking of intros and your passing mention of "Yancy Derringer": I still consider the YD theme song the best from all the TV shows running back then (though ones like "Maverick" or "77 Sunset Strip" were more iconic). I'm torn between whether it was a perfect fit for the show or totally missed the mark. But the melody is simple, short, and quite beautiful.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00452222696907771602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-28485533064389773462018-01-29T15:18:53.059-05:002018-01-29T15:18:53.059-05:00Eddie Albert was always worth watching.
