Continuing SEASON 1:
I am doubling back to episodes I missed back when I did this thread.

Highlights:
1:09 in.^
7:32 in.^
12:45 in.^
14:45 in.^
15:53 in.
17:51 in. Moderate dramatic cue utilizing Jerry's theme. Going to be sweet to own this one day. and.^
23:13 in. Funky restaurant source cue.^
27:04 in. Long somber cue reliant on mainly a solo acoustic guitar and some violins.^
42:06 in. This might be tracked from the prior episode.^
43:59 in. Car chase cue that sounds like something out of "The Mod Squad".
47:00 in.^

"Collision Course"
By: Jerry Goldsmith +

48:35 in.
About four years before "CHiPs" began, here we have Larry Wilcox playing a cop. Doesn't look like a cop, looks like the guy behind the counter at a Georgia flapjacks restaurant.
9:04 in: I think this is tracked from the prior episode "Violent Homecoming".

Concluding SEASON 1:
And with this short batch, I have completed all credited scores for season one.
"The Ripper"
TRACK JOB.
"Country Boy"
By: Jerry Goldsmith +
https://ok.ru/video/3141213686458
Highlights:
4:33 in.
5:38 in.^(5:34)
12:29 in. I feel like I've heard this before; maybe it was tracked in another series.^

Continuing SEASON 2:
"Requiem for C.Z. Smith"
By: Robert Drasnin +
https://ok.ru/video/3144153893562
Legal Crackle video link: https://www.crackle.com/details/59c639b0-57eb-4bd6-abd0-1aec8f1ff2fe/police-story-(series)/requiem-for-c.z.-smith
Highlights:
9:41 in. The source music.^
33:06 in.^
35:48 in.^
38:38 in.^
This is the weakest most uninteresting score I've heard thus far from Drasnin. The full score does not need to be released; I think only what I cited should be released.
"Fathers and Sons"
By: Bernardo Segáll
https://ok.ru/video/3144155204282
This is the only effort by Segall for the series.
Highlights:
4:09 in.
11:37 in.^
14:12 in.^
20:25 in.^
26:26 in.^
33:43 in.^
38:49 in.^
41:31 in.^
Not all of this needs to be released. I'd say only about half of what I cited is all that should get released.
44:46 in: the corpse moved right on the edit.
"I'm the only kid in California who's got Hitler for a father.
"A World Full of Hurt"
By: Robert Drasnin
https://ok.ru/video/3144154417850
Highlights:
2:31 in.
3:55 in.^
6:07 in.^
11:46 in. And the cue after the commercial break, which opens like a continuation of the previous cue.^
16:51 in.^
18:55 in.^
21:10 in.
22:11 in.
26:47 in.^
30:22 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
39:43 in.^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
12:29 in: probably tracked.
According to Jon Burlingame (and I believe the Prometheus album notes) Jerry Goldsmith only scored the pilot, and then many of his cues were adapted into library versions. So most likely all episodes that credit Goldsmith writing the score are tracked (or mostly tracked).

Continuing SEASON 2:
"Requiem for C.Z. Smith"
"Across the Line"

24:11 in.^
29:09 in.^
31:00 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
38:07 in.^
43:07 in.
Even though Goldsmith is the credited composer, I seriously doubt some of this score is his work, original or tracked; I think it's tracked material from other composers. EDIT: See Yavar's post above this one.
For the guys here: 9:05 in. You're welcome.
"Explosion"
By: Jerry Goldsmith

Highlights:
2:27 in.^
3:24 in.^
20:56 in.^
22:58 in. The source music. And the score cue that immediately follows it.^(score cue)
27:57 in. I think this may be tracked from a prior episode (maybe a Markowitz one).^
39:59 in. Pretty sure -- without comparing it -- this is from "Violent Homecoming".
45:22 in.
A hookman who isn't evil.
"Do you realize I've been looking at that face of yours for fifteen years? That's no reward."
"You realize its been no picnic for me either?"

Continuing SEASON 2:
"Incident in the Kill Zone"
By: Richard Markowitz
https://ok.ru/video/3144154614458
Highlights:
1:01 in.^
5:15 in. Pretty sure this is all tracked and may all be Goldsmith pieces.
16:17 in.^
21:32 in.^
30:53 in.^
32:39 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
38:24 in: Pretty sure this is tracked.

27:19 in.^
33:38 in.^
35:49 in.^
39:07 in.
41:38 in.
44:09 in.^
A low-key score for an episode that's more tense emotional drama than any real action. I'm not sure how much of this score I would include on a set of season two.
"Year of the Dragon: Part 1"
By: Richard Markowitz
https://ok.ru/video/3144154876602

Continuing SEASON 2:
"Year of the Dragon: Part 2"
By: Richard Markowitz
https://ok.ru/video/3144154024634
Highlights:
9:52 in. Pretty simple, not much to it, but I just really enjoy this kind of stuff.^
11:11 in.
15:16 in. Opening with a laid-back Goldsmith theme arrangement, the cue quickly goes into car-chase music mode for the vast remainder.^
20:50 in.^
23:10 in.^
31:58 in. Burlesque jazz music. About forty seconds long, but it stops when the scene is cut off, so I suspect a full cue was recorded so it could be used anywhere in the cue as needed.^
36:09 in.^
40:35 in.^
43:15 in.^
Guest starring our favorite F.B.I. agent from "Greatest American Hero". I strongly suspect there's a good deal of ad libing from him.
The first seven minutes is re-capping!
Special note to whomever was the actress at about 20:50 in. Her acting in cries of sadness, were just spot on and totally believable. And all that in ten or less seconds.
(NtM: 14:37, 29:45)
"To Steal a Million"
By: Harry Suckman
https://ok.ru/video/3144153959098
This is Sukman's only effort for the series.
Highlights:
2:26 in.^
6:05 in.^
11:42 in. Short outtro cue, and the cue after the commercial break.^
26:49 in.^
38:14 in. Including the Goldsmith theme.^
44:05 in.
I feel this score was rather standard and unremarkable. Sukman won't be missed on this show, for me. In fact, the entire episode is rather standard and not on the level of any prior episode I can recall.
(NtM: 5:19, 28:30)
"The Execution"
By: Robert Drasnin
https://ok.ru/video/3144154090170
Highlights:
0:47 in.^
12:29 in.
17:52 in.^
39:36 in.^(parts)
42:56 in. Drum kit, brass, and timpani for chase music.^
There's not much scoring in the episode and I cited almost all of it.
30:05 in should be an edited track job from "Violent Homecoming" (also a Drasnin effort).

Finishing SEASON 2:
"The Man in the Shadows"
By: Richard Markowitz
https://ok.ru/video/3144154221242

24:27 in.^
35:46 in.^
38:35 in.
39:53 in.
41:14 in. Tense cue with a wooden block and tambourine backing in the open.^
Another episode with not much scoring. I also cited most of it.

"War Games"

God this episode if awful. Hollywood people still think this is how southerners are to this day.
(NtM: 33:25, 37:53)
NO LOAD FOUND.
"The Return of Joe Forrester"
By: Richard Markowitz
Feature-length back-door pilot that leads to the short-lived spin-off series "Joe Forrester". For some reason Crackle does not have this episode up with the rest of season two.

Continuing SEASON 3:
"A Community of Victims" (3.3)

18:09 in.^
23:41 in.
27:03 in.^
29:50 in.^
39:09 in.^
44:39 in.
There's just no consistency in the composer and theme music credits on this show. Here we have a weird one:
Music by .................
RICHARD MARKOWITZ
And the same for Jerry underneath, whereas for a number of episodes some consistency had start to settle in, with a regular-looking composer credit and the theme music credit further into the end credits. But some typist really likes excessive periods here. And "JERRY" looks like its falling down on the left side.
"Losing Game" (3.4)
By: Gerald Fried
https://ok.ru/video/3147018472122
This is Fried's only effort for the series.
Highlights:
2:07 in.^
13:46 in.
19:49 in.^
34:17 in.^
37:22 in.^
This is a fairly weak score and based upon it, it's not real loss that Fried didn't score any further episodes.
NO LOAD FOUND.

"Odyssey of Death: Part 1"
By: Richard Markowitz

Alternative link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSUI_xMgfGc

12:50 in.^
14:55 in.^
24:59 in.^
36:38 in.^
38:08 in. Seven and-a-half minutes long, to the end of the episode.^
I cited an estimated 75% of the episode score. The full score doesn't need to be released, but in my opinion everything I cited should be.
Robert Stack guest stars as the lead.

"The Other Side of the Fence"
By: John Parker

This is the final effort by Parker for the series.
Highlights:
0:55 in.^
3:26 in.^
12:50 in.^
34:17 in.^
36:49 in. About five or six minutes into the cue, it sounds like it becomes an edit job (possibly all Goldsmith].^

19:35 in.^

25:41 in.^
41:29 in.^

I can't readily say, but it sounds like some of the scoring might be tracked, so I'm not sure how much original score is in this episode.
Apparently being burned in a fire morphs you into a merry Serpico.

By: Richard Markowitz
https://ok.ru/video/3147017358010

24:46 in.^

"Eamon Kinsella Royce"
By: Richard Markowitz

Highlights:
1:09 in.^
26:49 in.
33:16 in. The country-flavored source music.
38:39 in.^
There's not much scoring in the episode. On a set of season three scoring, I'd probably just keep the first cue and the source cue.
34:21 in: should be that tracked cue yet again, from "Violent Homecoming".

13:19 in.^
14:46 in.^
21:42 in. The bar source music. And the cue after the commercial break.^
24:03 in.^
27:43 in. Comedic music. If Markowitz had scored "Bewitched", here's how it might have sounded.^

Most of Immel's work on this episode is just like his work on the spin-off series "Police Woman". And the producers must have liked it, because they tracked it into later episodes. I guess scheduling conflicts prevented him from doing more.

Dick's score was nominated for an Emmy. The only score of the series to be nominated. I don't find anything particular special about it or so great as a whole; Markowtiz has done better on multiple episodes. The other competition that year:
"Roots"
Episode: Part 1
Composers: Quincy Jones and Gerald Fried
"Roots"
Episode: Part 8
Composer: Gerald Fried
"Bronk"
Episode: "The Vigilante"
Composer: Jack Urbont
(utterly baffling nomination)
"Captains and the Kings"
Episode: Chapter 8
Composer: Elmer Bernstein
