Funky but no Jefferson's theme

Ain't no theme as funky as "The Jeffersons". "Wonder Woman" was funky as hell too.

You ain't lying. WW was funky! I used to change the lyric of "In her satin tights/fighting for our rights" to "In her satin drawers/reinforcing laws!"

Night Court was kinds funky too if memory serve me correctly.

Remember Legs doesn't break promises

sitruk7 said:

Night Court was more jazzy.

Hmmm. I still can't really remember how it went.New question... Are there any funky TV show themes now a days?

sitruk7 said:

NO.
They're all sappy or hip- hoppy. Im a fan of the two second sound thats popular on the Law and Order shows.

DOUM DOUM!

TV shows are w/out Funk nowadays.

Of the 2 in question, Sanford & Son (The Streetbeater)

Good Times & The Jeffersons were more gospel than funk.

Beyond the ones already mentioned (SWAT, Wonder Woman, Barney Miller, Night Court, etc)

Baretta
Miami Vice
The Streets of San Francisco
Starsky & Hutch
Fish
David Letterman (the original 4-piece band arrangement)

TA Baby, I would agree with you as always.

I'll need to try to find some of those old theme's mentioned. Especially Letterman! Letterman and funk never shared the some brain wave in my head.

I used to love the Video LP theme on BET long before I found out it was the instrumental of Pheromone by Prince. I wonder what the unused theme by P for Byrant Gumbal's show sounded like? I heard it may have been considered "too funky" for a news program.

sitruk7 said:

Not sure where you'll find the old version except on TrioTV (cable) which runs the old Letterman shows.

The World's Most Dangerous Band is all about playing 60s/70s R&b/Funk covers.
As a matter of fact, they're probably the best paid cover band on the planet.

Oh, just remembered what THE funkiest TV theme song is.
George Clinton's tune for The Tracey Ullman Show - You're Thinking Right.
