I adore Andy Griffith, series and score. I would pay Mission: Impossible money for a big box set, TBH.
I was pretty sure Hagen composed original scores for every episode like he (and Hugo Friedhofer) did on I Spy? At least, it usually seems (in the first five B&W seasons at least) that the music is custom-written.
Don’t have time to post more now but I agree with you that there is a wealth of great character scoring, with a lot of action and heartfelt music in addition to some fun comedic stuff.
I’m less familiar with the spinoffs and don’t have the nostalgia draw to the music where I can recall over a dozen character themes, but if it’s up at the same level I would probably spring for 3-4 disc sets of each...not a huge expensive set like Trek or M:I, if I’m being honest.

Not familiar with either series. I'd certainly welcome another volume of I Spy scores though. But some hope...

I wouldn't, but I respect the hell out of Earl Hagen. He wrote "Harlem Nocturne" which is one of my all-time favorite tunes; in fact, it's so good that almost any recording of it is great, from The Viscounts to Danny Gatton to The Lounge Lizards. Also, Johnny Otis and so many more.
