Few unknowns from 1978 onwards
« on: March 07, 2019, 10:44:01 PM »
I wondered if anyone would be able to help with some tracks that I am trying to ID.
I know the first track has been used since 1978, so must be from a vinyl of 1978 or before. The others I am not sure about.

http://jcp.craig-uk.com/unknownthemes.php
*the link is my own site hence the direct link*

If you click on any of the Unknown tracks on the page it will give you the dates of which they was used and what other tracks were used around the date as well as a recording. I am only logging from 1985 so nothing would be noted as before, although I do know UNK-1 was used from 1978.
Known used libraries at the time are:
Boosey & Hawkes
Bruton Music
De Wolfe Music
Emil Ascher, Inc.
Hudson Music Company
KPM Music
Major Records / Valentino
Network Music
and Rouge Music

Libraries which they used later on vinyl (or possibly same time and thats why I can't find them):
Chappell Recorded Music Library
Coloursound
Match Music
NFL Film Music
OmniMusic
Sonoton
Tele Music
Themes International

Any assistance on any of these would be very much appreciated.

Thank you very much for that Porn Library. I thought that one was going to be tricky as I believe UNK-2 3 & 4 are all from the same vinyl, because each time they have been used they have been used together. Jim Crockett Promotions seem to use each vinyl in batches for the replays.

Nothing I immediately recognize - but what fantastic presentation!

UNK-7 is the Russian national anthem, but I don't recognize the arrangement.
UNK-2 seems inspired by the Police's "Message in a Bottle".

Thank you for looking Mr. and for the compliment.

I do have another one which is from 1988-2001, but I didn't share that here as that would mainly be CDs, but maybe people could listen to the first couple of years which may have used vinyls?

Some tracks were used prior (as in the link above) and over time more will as I am still working on JCP.

I appreciate any help in regards to any tracks on these, it will include the odd custom track but I do list "custom" in the tags if so, they're still unknown as I don't know the original composer.

Thank you again for looking and trying.

I did manage to confirm the Russian National Anthem as by The Vienna State Opera Orchestra (hxxps://www.discogs.com/The-Vienna-State-Opera-Orchestra-National-Anthems-Of-The-World/release/4408468)

Update on this:
I have updated a couple of the recordings for clearer/longer recordings.
Also there are a few more new recordings that has been added. Please note this is an on-going project, I am watching every available show from 1985-1988 and therefore any unknown track will automatically be listed, I won't post on here for everyone as I don't want to bombard you all.

I think UNK-11 may be Bruton, just the trumpet has that type of sound.

Thank you for checking them out and any help at all is very much welcome.

In the car (passenger seat) trying to listen to these.
3 I have —-it’s a De Wolfe Track that also has a vocal version. I think it was used in Prisoner Cell Block H around 1984. I can find it once I’m home.


May be DWSLP 3470 - I Don’t Feel Well.

Thank you very much for looking, unfortunately that is one vinyl I am missing so I can't check it. If that is one you can share I'd be very thankful.

Thank you man, seriously no rush. Thank you for helping :) and you seem to be correct as the only thing I can find is hxxps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDq0q7lhuU0 "I Wan't To Play For Free" which is UNK-4

That would be excellent as they'd probably use another track from the vinyl at a later date :)

It's been recorded as a WAV so you may want to convert it.
DWSLP 3470 - I Don't Feel Well
