Road Test Magazine (TNN car show) unknown tracks

[ζBUS]

Hey folks, ζBUS here with another stash of unknown library tracks.

This time, I bring y'all some tracks heard in MotorWeek by way of Nashville, TNN's "Road Test Magazine" that is.

Due to the large number of tracks, it's all on a single MEGA folder this time; no individual Vocaroo links.

The folder dated 1992-93 contains samples from episodes in that range found on the web archive, while the Unknown Dates folder has a few more samples from YouTube clips of the show.

The show used FirstCom, Production Garden, and Musi-Q Productions tracks AFAIK; most of these unknowns I suspect are either FirstCom pre-1990 or Production Garden 200 series.  Hopefully it's mostly the former, since that latter is much more difficult to find.

Due to the poor quality of some of these samples, I would recommend listening through the albums to look for the tracks, as the Fingerprinter may yield false matches or no results.

Good luck, and thanks in advance!

Hi, ζBUS! Welcome back, friend.

[ζBUS]

Good too see you again Yohanes.

Here's something I realized just now: "RTM-921118_IDAQ_cue4" is the first track heard in the Production Garden's online sampler for the PG 206 "Sizzlin' Hot" album. As luck would have it, that track is "Move Over" by Jaime Lagueruela, also released on the PG 110 "Hot Tracks II" album!

Okay, one more update then it's up to you guys.

"RTM-930220_IDAQ_cue6" (used as an intro spiel cue in many episodes, actually) is heard in PG 202 "Winning Spirit"'s online sampler at the 1:10 mark. I was unaware of this track being on the 100 series, until I heard it as "Power Play" on PG 111 "Power Tracks II". Another one off the list.

Me too.

Ah yes, Production Garden, one of my favorites!

Today I've updated the MEGA folder with a section of unknown tracks from a later era in the Road Test Magazine show: 1995.

There's 22 more tracks for you guys to try and ID in that folder. These tracks do sound a bit newer than pre-'90 FirstCom, and I've not heard these tracks anywhere on Musi-Q or Production Garden, so I recommend checking if post-'90 FirstCom or Non-Stop Music is the origin of these tracks, since those labels were used in some promos on TNN at the time.

Good luck and thanks in advance!
