Hey! Is the Jack Emblow who used to be on Radio 2 nearly every Sunday afternoon? If it was. Did he do some music for a yoghurt advert in the '60's, a piece which was also used for a T.V. programme, something about the news I think. Please, please let me know. I've been trying to find out what that music is for years...

[rtrob]

Yes, he played on Sing Something Simple - don't know about the advert.

[priapus56]

YEAH! That's the guy! How do I get in touch?

[CLASSICALJAJ]

Yep . . . This is the same Jack Emblow . . . Sing something simple (BBC R2) with the Cliff Adams singers ! An amazing man ! Hope he lives forever.

@CLASSICALJAJ Do you know the music I mentioned above..the piece that was used for the yoghurt ad..it also had the singers in the background going

Dooo. Do..do..do..do...do..doooo! But no words....Not much! But I can't hum here!

[priapus56]

@CLASSICALJAJ Got it! Can you play piano? The melody line went..(in C)....

C.....(up), F, A, (down), F, C, A, (up) D.

That' s it...anybody got any idea what it was called??? Wish I could contact Mr Emblow before i go nuts!

[CLASSICALJAJ]

It's very likely as Jack accompanied The Cliff Adams singers - Radio 2's "Sing Something Simple" . . . Cliff Adams wrote many many famous adverts and jingles e.g- Smash Potato. Afraid you'll have to trawl through youtube for 60's adverts. Best of luck. JAJ
