This is a total must-own for connoisseurs of tv theme collections. This superb collection features near-enough all of the classic Grainer themes including some must-own rarities and obscurities such as his brilliant and kitschy disco versions of the Doctor Who and Tales of the Unexpected themes, the original (alternate) unused version of The Prisoner theme tune and his cover version of Mood Mosaic's "A Touch of Velvet - A Sting of Brass" (the theme from top German pop show Musikladen).
