I immediately liked it. The year before I winced a little with the electric guitar of the first series theme music -- it was already "old".<br /><br />Now, I much prefer Derek Wadsworth's contributions to the series, even though I'm a long-time Barry Gray fan. I won't go on about it, besides I did my own posting here: http://barrysmight.blogspot.ca/2008/01/for-wadsworth.html<br /><br />In late 1976, or early 1977, I bought the <b>Space: 1999</b> RCA LP and, although I enjoyed it as a fan of the program, I was surprised by how brief the record album was. And the next year, I, along with a friend of mine, was disappointed that there was no Year-2 record album. (Of course, we did not know at the time that <b>Space: 1999</b> had all but died in the marketplace.)Barry Smighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464450751543573690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-47843680910326530712013-07-17T23:43:25.201-04:002013-07-17T23:43:25.201-04:00I always felt that the season one theme song and f...I always felt that the season one theme song and format should have been re-used on season two.<br /><br />SGBSGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137406272001346149noreply@blogger.com
