SEASON 6:




"The Condemned"
By: Duane Tatro
https://ok.ru/video/2833165191927

Highlights:
  • 0:00 in.^
  • 24:47 in.^
  • 29:26 in.^
  • 36:54 in.
  • 38:31 in.
  • 42:41 in.
  • 45:11/46:38 in.^

    Not too much score in the episode.
    Including the rare appearance of a brass harmonica in an episodic TV series score (cue not cited).



    "The Traitor"
    By: Hugo Friedhofer
    https://ok.ru/video/2833164995319

    This is the only effort by Friedhofer for the series.

    Highlights:
  • 0:00 in.^
  • 1:55 in.^
  • 5:18 in.^
  • 14:13 in.^
  • 21:55 in.^
  • 28:36 in.
  • 35:16 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
  • 39:59 in.^
  • 45:05 in.^

    The score is different, but something of a mixed bag. I don't dislike it -- it's interesting to hear, but this one effort didn't leave me wanting to hear more from Hugo on the show. And it doesn't matter since there wasn't more.

    (NtM: 15:39)


    "Escape to Terror"
    TRACK JOB
    https://ok.ru/video/4001761397389

    (Score: 2:53, 3:52, 5:20 [identify], 7:44, 10:41, 14:05, 15:54, 17:39, 24:33 [identify], 27:38 [identify: second], 30:49, 32:19, 33:27, 36:11 [identify: 36:33], 38:01, 39:09 [identify], 43:01, and 45:48.)

    Continuing SEASON 6:




    "The Architect"
    By: Willard Jones
    https://ok.ru/video/2833164864247 (looks every so slightly better than below load)
    Alternative link: https://ok.ru/video/3359736138367

    Highlights:
  • 1:12 in.^
  • 2:43 in.
  • 5:13 in.^
  • 10:43 in.^
  • 22:02 in.
  • 25:10 in.^
  • 31:01 in.
  • 38:15 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
  • 43:02 in.^
  • 45:44 in.^

    Not a bad score, but it's kind of scatter-brained and goes all over the place.

    (NtM: 26:21)



    "The Savage Wilderness" (5)
    By: John Elizalde
    https://ok.ru/video/2833165912823

    Highlights:
  • 0:00 in. Bold and kind of lush music for a lovely rocky beach.^
  • 2:32 in.^
  • 5:29 in.^
  • 6:53 in.^
  • 8:23 in.
  • 16:05 in.^
  • 23:48 in.^
  • 25:31 in.^
  • 27:41 in.
  • 28:42 in.^
  • 33:18 in.^
  • 39:01 in.^
  • 41:53 in.^
  • 46:37 in.^
  • 49:26 in.^

    Elizalde seems to focus his scoring more of presenting this as if it was a nature documentary special, with lush music, bold statements, and the kind of scoring you'd expect to depict the picture-esque views.

    I really don't like this episode. Aside from the fact its painfully slow and gives you no reason for it for like 90% of the episode, it departs from the realistic crimes element that made the show what it was, and focuses on a fake premise and more film-like bad guy.

    SEASON 8:

    The last couple of season were kind of shaky and had some bad episodes, but season eight recovers and at times is almost as good as it's heyday in season four.

    By: Richard Markowitz
    https://ok.ru/video/7125820115575
    https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8euj4g

    Highlights:
  • 1:53 in. Over three minutes of jazz chase music.^
  • 7:11 in. A minute of jazz music.^
  • 9:27 in. Action material.^
  • 11:11 in.^
  • 15:35 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
  • 20:14 in. Over three minutes of tense material, with a short amount of vague callbacks to his episode score "The Widow".^
  • 23:41 in.^
  • 27:15 in.^
  • 28:52 in.^

  • 35:29 in.^

    Another good score from Markowitz. I cited pretty much every last bit.

    By: Robert Drasnin
    https://ok.ru/video/7125820705399

  • 1:57 in.^
  • 3:47 in.^
  • 6:00 in.^
  • 9:27 in.
  • 11:19 in. The funky source music on the radio, cut off early.^

  • 25:35 in.^
  • 28:30 in.^

  • 33:23 in.^
  • 38:08 in.^
  • 40:51 in.^
  • 42:18 in.^
  • 47:23 in.^

    Drasnin also provides a good score, with occasional light similarities to his one score to the series "Most Wanted".
    Some of this may have been tracked in the above track-job episode.

    5:10 in: The old guy looks like he just realized he shit his pants.

    By: Willard Wood-Jones

  • 27:45 in.^
  • 43:10 in.^
  • 45:21 in.^
  • 49:30 in.^

    On a set of season eight scoring, I'd probably only take away two or three cues, like the 45:21 highlight. The score is serviceable enough, but lacks what other composers brought to the show.

    "End of a Nightmare"
    By: Duane Tatro
    https://ok.ru/video/7129241356919
    https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8euj6u

    Highlights:
  • 2:21 in.^

  • 7:44 in.^
  • 12:50 in.^
  • 21:08 in.^
  • 23:03 in.^
  • 31:03 in. I think this cue was in the first track-job episode of the season.^
  • 35:00 in. and.^
  • 37:35 in.^
  • 42:23 in. Cue is cut off because the scene is cut early (obviously cut down to broadcast).^
  • 44:09 in.^

    Tatro provides a good score, even with touches of echoplex sounds. The score falls more into line with writing and orchestration with Kaper and earlier Markowtiz efforts, while bringing his own touches. Tatro was a perfect choice for this episode.
    And it proves to be a favorite for track-job episodes, especially certain moody settings.

    A very young looking Dean Stockwell guest stars.

    https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8euj80

    Highlights:

  • 27:58 in. The jazz/disco source music. And the score cue that immediately follows it at 30:53.^
  • 32:28 in.^
  • 37:01 in. Joining a cue already in progress.^
  • 42:09 in. Over six and-a-half minutes long. And the cue after the commercial break.^

    On a set of season eight scoring, I would probably just take the source cue and the final two cues that close out the episode.

  • 5:46 in. Laid back kind of country sounding cue with harmonica and banjo leading.^
  • 11:32 in. The country-music bar source cue.^
  • 13:49 in.
  • 16:55 in.^
  • 20:42 in.^

  • 36:22 in.
  • 37:39 in.^
  • 40:50 in.^
  • 42:37 in. Short dramatic outtro cue, and the cue after the commercial break which goes all the way to the next commercial break, then the following closing cue. Just over seven minutes of scoring, all three total.^

    Harris provides a different kind of approach, while at times still sounding like some of the first season work by Kaper. It's a good score and I'm tempted to say it's one of the series' best.

  • 13:37 in.^
  • 18:10 in.^
  • 26:24 in.^
  • 28:15 in.^

  • 35:53 in. And the cue after the commercial break.^
  • 41:00 in.^
  • 43:33 in.^
  • 45:25 in.^

    A lot of generally nice stuff, but don't expect big material, bombast, edgy, or the jazz work of Markowitz. Some of the score is more kind of in line with the different approaches Harris was taking, to some degree.

    Final credited original score of the season. Yes, not very many.

    There's not much score in the episode, especially considering that Tatro had to do quite a bit of score from previous efforts. For some reason he made the score particularly edgy, hard, biting -- probably to make up for the episode being kind of a boring slog and not so engaging.

    Highlights:
  • 2:06 in.^
  • 5:49 in.^
  • 7:53/8:21/10:07 in.^
  • 11:49 in.^
  • 3342 in.^
  • 35:13 in. Bittersweet soft arrangement of the Kaper theme for woodwinds.^
  • 35:46 in.^
  • 43:15 in.^

    Maybe it's just me, but I think your bad guy should not look like he's a little black eye liner and hat away from auditioning for A Clockwork Orange.

    About 28:30 in: arrangement of the theme from A Summer Place (Steiner). I don't know if this is a tracked pre-existing piece of something done by Tatro.

    Continuing SEASON 9:




    "Fatal Reunion"
    By: Richard Markowitz

    This is the final effort by Markowitz for the series.

    Highlights:
  • 4:26 in. Quite reminiscent of his work on the episode "The Widow".^
  • 8:13 in.^
  • 9:39 in.^
  • 22:41 in. More action material like the opening cue.^
  • 24:04 in. Softer more romantic material.^
  • 26:53 in.^
  • 34:58 in.^
  • 36:05 in.^
  • 47:15 in.^
  • 49:28 in.

    28:24 in: Arrangement of the song "As Time Goes By" (Herman Hupfeld). I don't know if this is a tracked pre-existing piece or done by Markowitz.
    The song title may not ring any bells for some of you, but the lyrics will: "You must remember this: A kiss is still a kiss."
    Popularized, of course, by the Dooley Wilson take used in the 1942 film Casablanca.

    (NtM: 12:35)
