"CHiPs" has to be the best & most Disco of all TV show themes, and there were plenty, at the time. I never knew if the producers chose the Corniche track after it was released, or if it was a special order for the show. In any case, I just loved it: 2 local cops (I grew up in L.A.) on motorcycles, driving through the Caddy Eldorados, Mercury Cougars, Olds Toronados, Lincoln Town Cars, and Chrysler Imperials (and, unfortunately, more and more jap craps), with that cool bassline and strings, pumping up the action. The show was an instant hit as far as I was concerned, and the music was certainly part responsible for that...

Johan, I love ya bro. 8) I just love this stuff you're finding. I don't know why I didn't think of this sort of thread when Boodi and I were discussing It Takes A Thief. Yah, yah, I know, it's because I'm liberal :lol:

My favorites are Mannix and UFO. If my dumbass is wrong and there's a heaven, let it among other things have shows like these.
So speaking of ITAT here are the links for 3 seasons.

What about Disco versions of T.V. Themes - Wilton Place Band "I Love Lucy" and best of all - John Davis Orch. "Kojack Theme". I have the Rhythm Heritage "S.W.A.T" L.P and it's full of "Theme" type tracks.

Actually, he was well known for that track and it was popular. He also has a whole album of movie themes.
