This Auction ends today for the Tattletales and The All New Let's Make A Deal music. Direct from the source which means Perfect Quality. Right now both tapes available for only $9.95 each. Grab them while you can. If they don't sell then I probably will not place them up for auction again.

Check them out right here http://tinyurl.com/3mz5x

Well, the market dropped out on THOSE in a hurry, didn't they? :)

Hmm... I thought Thicke and Alderman did all the musical scores for TANLMAD. Were they on the Score payroll circa 1984, or was I misinformed?

Only reason the market dropped is because they don't say "The Price Is Right Music cues." Wait till I put another one of them up for Bid :-)

I should sell my Henry Mancini CD with the Pink Panther theme and call it a TPIR cue.

They were the *coordinators,* not the composers. The music for the 80s revival was the new stuff from Score, some cues from the 1977 revamp and some other H-H series (including the "Wah wah wah" Zonk cue recycled from "It Pays to Be Ignorant"). Thicke and Alderman picked it and cued it, just like Stan Blits has been doing on "TPIR" for years.

I kind of take issue with calling anything on cassette "perfect quality, not a copy." Cassettes had their strengths, mostly portability... but sound quality was not one of them. They may have been used for demos, but for production purposes, I would assume the music would have been provided on a reel-to-reel format (then dubbed onto Mackenzie, cart, digi-cart, or what have you).

...and the buyer is prolly going to know that.

I think John means "as good a quality as you're gonna get on a cassette, considering that it is a first-generation recording directly from the source material."

Don't sell the CD -- that's your master. Make a couple dozen cassette copies, print some labels with the TPIR logo and "Safe Crackers" on them, and you've got yourself a musical money machine.

Then go down to the art supply store, pick up some beige card stock and black Marks-A-Lots, cut the card stock to 3" x 5" and trim off two corners. Write the word "Dinette" in little letters and $549 in big letters. Make a couple dozen of those and it's better than having an IRA.

Geeez, I see that Randy West is currently reading this topic. Stop giving him ideas Chris. You know Randy is the crazy one here who will do it! :-)
