Mysterious tunes from an 80's show
« on: March 30, 2024, 05:10:30 PM »
Hello dear friends,

recently I started retrieving music used in an italian 80's/90's game show that used lots of library music as underscores for phyisical games - they used lots of Bruton and Parry music.

But there are 38 tunes that I can't identify in any way. Where I could, I left at lest 20 seconds of the tune and numbered everything from 1 to 38.




Every suggestion will be useful! Thank you

Bronic

I tried Shazam on some of them...  :P

19 - Joe Fingers Carr - Angel Food Rag
27 - Fred Tornow / Eric Frantzen - Honky Tonkin

Do the following:

Install the Shazam and AHA music extensions on your browser to recognize music playing in the current tab.

Clean your samples with lala.ai. Removing voices will improve the results when using those services.

Please post your results. I'm looking for a similar tune in the style for quite some time.

Thank you very much for the found tunes, I tried Shazam and other music decetion tools for everything but nothing worked.
I also tried your music extraction method but no results were given.

Discovered one more tune in the meantime, so there's a list of the discovered tunes by now:

1 - MB-One, John Groves, from Hot Spots Vol. 2 (Selected Sound)
19 - Angel Food Rag, Joe Fingers Carr, from Bar Room Piano & Honky Tonk (Vintage Music)
27 - Honky Tonkin', Fred Tornow / Eric Frantzen, from Corny Comedie's Comedy Corner (Colorsound)

I recognize none, sorry quizzone.

Just out of curiosity, what game shows these are taken from?
I think I recognized Davide Mengacci, Claudio Lippi, Jerry Scotti, Corrado voices but I just can't recall the tv show...

Thank you Greta, everything you said is correct.

The tunes with Corrado, Lippi & Mengacci are taken from various episodes of "Il pranzo è servito" (1982-1993), the show with Scotti was "Il Quizzone" (1995).
The tune n.1 was taken from a 1993 european edition of "Jeux sans Frontieres"
