This was from the first edition of top gear. It was only locally broadcasted in the midlands monthly. |

Anyone else remember when Top Gear was the late night Radio 1 show for 70s rock music?? I've still got a Soft Machine session on a cassette somewhere .... If anyone could ever get captures from Wheelbase - the BBC car programme of the 60s-70s - they could be fun. |

@dsl: did you know, that for the Capri MkII even an own jingle was composed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANyWEXLo6u8 You hear the "Capri Zwei". As I've heard (but only by rumour), he http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Doldinger had composed it. I'm sure, he's not unknown for you ![]() His most popular composition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkgtA30tZn8 |

Never heard of him - he must be foreign or something. But Das Boot was superb. Have an old favourite which is always worth revisiting in reply - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoa3OTJfWIY . |

That theme was composed by Roy Budd IIRC - who had a jazz-background just like Doldinger. As far as I`m concerned, Doldinger`s finest hour was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvalGxHcgCw -especially the Fender Rhodes-part from 1:15 on. @ingo: I`m sorry but AFAIK it was rather Christian Bruhn who wrote the Capri II- jingle: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Bruhn#Schlager @dsl: This was Doldinger's band that gained at least a bit international attention- among jazz enthusiasts, that is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passport_(band) |

@cl82: oh, yes, you're correct. Yes, he was responsible for a plenty of 1970-memories: Link to "www.youtube.com" (incl.the jingle for the Ford Taunus [TC1] |

I don't really do jazz, but occasionally something slips under the wires. This week it's something German as well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vd6JVdrihKw |

I never heard Buddy Bolden say that! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5k9E717QVM I'm afraid that the Kraftwerke derivative leaves me completely unmoved, the drummer is too extrovert. -- Last edit: 2014-05-23 00:20:49 |

I hope that you watched Jazz 625 last night, then. Marian McPartland and Oscar Peterson, should have made your evening. -- Last edit: 2014-05-25 09:08:47 |
