Ah, that CS-80! If it weren't so heavy and difficult to tune, I'd say I wanted it, but it's too much of a hassle. Not that I'd ever be able to afford one anyway.

They dont make themes like that anymore!

@DaveDaRave1980. If that could be done I would be eternally grateful. I wonder what it would take to get a copy of the four eps we were on. Be great to show my kids. Thanks Dave for taking time to reply, any advice on how I might get a copy would be gratefully welcomed.

@n136ha No idea sorry, but I could try contacting Jonathan Cohen if you like, he was involved in all three of BBC Schools music series (Music Time, The Music Arcade and Into Music), as far as I'm aware everything since 1980 has been archived in some form apart from some of the original Take Hart recordings which were destroyed

@DaveDaRave1980 - I was on this show with my school from North London at the end on 1982 I think. would love to try and see there is a copy anywhere, we were on four episodes. I wonder if the bbc keep old tapes?

Howcome he didn't say something like "a lady named Delia Derbyshire took Ron Grainers theme, and created a more modern sound"
Howcome she never got a mention? :(

"Music Arcade" started in 1978 as a show aimed at older children (alongside its other music series, "Music Time", aimed at younger children) and ran until 1986, after which it was replaced by the series "Into Music" which continued until it (and "Music Time") were both dropped in 1993. All three were good series for what they were aimed at

Gotta love seeing people that do a proper days work with some inner motivation. Just makes you feel like achieving something yourself really

It's a shame Delia Derbyshire rarely gets mentioned when talking about the Dr Who theme. She played a bigger part than Ron Grainer in how the theme ended up sounding. Splicing together bits of quarter inch tape, running loops up the corridors of BBCs Maida Vale studio and crudely sampling and varispeeding various bangs and crashes.All subsequent versions are just ripping off all her ideas but not doing it as well.LOVE YOU DELIA!!!

The BBC should employ people like this again. Get rid of the spoilt University graduates who get paid millions to come up with rubbish title sequences of hippos for example.
