Als ich ein Kind war, vor ca. 35 Jahren, lief die Serie im deutschen Fernsehen, ich habe die Geschichten um James Onedin mit großer Spannung verfolgt, und die Titelmusik, die ich jetzt hören kann, ist eine sehr schöne Erinnerung für mich! Danke! Thanks a lot!
@Mamillie1 De rien. Eh bien alors, j'ai que 23 ans. Je pense qu'il dépend de vos goûts. James Onedin est un vrai marin; difficiles, professionnelle, forte et courageuse.
Jack Sparrow est un personnage comique, bien créé, mais pas un marin.
Je ne savais pas que cette série était connue en France, je suis content que vous êtes un fan.
@dezboss Vous écrivez très bien en français. Le mari de ma soeur est Gallois (Wales). Ma nièce a fait partie des Mediaeval Baebes et son mari est musicien de Kula Shaker (voir sur Facebook). J'ai un ami e-mail qui habite dans le Dorset et mon fils va quelques fois à Londres. Je regarde souvent "Escape to the Country" sur la BBC. But Sorry, I don't speak English.
I remember this recording from a 70s TV themes LP in Australia. I've tried to remember its title, the orchestra or conductor, but I can't, other than it was Australian and it had a high profile entertainment conductor of the time. It had a white cover with a montage of drawings of scenes from various shows. I do remember some of the TV themes, which included Division 4, Hawaii Five-O, Owen MD, Matlock Police, Homicide and Farewell Aunty Jack. If I can remember any other details I will post again
@servros Just to set the facts straight, I recorded this piece direct from an album I had in possession since working at 4ZZZFm from their record library, the cover is blue and red and is titled 'Favorite T.V. Themes' with tracks: The Onedin Line (khatchaturin/Arr.N.Warren - Eros Music)
And: Bonanza, On the Buses, Doctor at large, Big Match, This is your Life, Owen M.D. Paul Temple, Please Sir, Match of the day The Fenn St. Gang, The Persuaders. Recorded by EMS industries Adelaide Aus.
@Krazzy12U Well, I'm sorry I irritated you; clearly my memory didn't serve me well enough while you had the benefit of still having your album to refer to; I don't have mine anymore but I recognize it from your description. I must have mixed up some of the details with other TV theme albums I had at the time.
@servros Don't worry, you didn't irritate me at all, just prompted me to refer back to that record. If anything it's inspired me to play the vinyl again that's been sitting in my garage!
This is no rare version at all .... in fact, this is a performance of the original piece, which is in fact only a part (the Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia) of the Spartacus Suite by the famous Armenian composer Aram Khatchaturian. The music used in the TV series is only a very poor transcription of it. Indeed, this is very beautiful and nearly magical music. And in fact, Khatchaturian wrote more pieces like this.... some of them are also to be found on YouTube.
Well thanks for that info PBZ, that solves the mystery of this piece for me...I suppose 'Eros music' is a synonym for his (Aram's) orchestra as well? because that is all I had to go on from the compilation album it was on. K
Iv'e got to say - many people are discovering this rare ochestral version of the Onedin line as a pleasent alternative to the original theme yes? I discovered this track on an old B grade theme track record bought in the 70s and all it says about the performers are "Eros music" - anyone know the origins or history of this group? - K
All Episodes or all 8 Seasons of ca. 90 parts of the british series are meanwhile available on DVD-Boxes - in best quality. Where no TV-station re-runs old good Drama-series, so everyone can buy or lend his favorite-series !
I love this music. Having recently discovered youtube, which I think is great, I am really depressed the videos of The Onedin line have been removed. Is there anyone else ab;e to help please???
thank you very much..I know this composer but didn't knew this was from him..nice to learn

Mes petits-enfants préfèrent Jack Sparow à James Onedin, mais 2 générations nous séparent. Contente que vous êtes du même avis que moi et merci.
