Juke Box Jury - Theme Music

Theme Music

For the first six weeks of the programme, the theme to Juke Box Jury was "Juke Box Fury", written by composer and arranger Tony Osborne and recorded by his band under the name Ozzie Warlock and The Wizards.

The programme's producer Russell Turner then replaced the theme with another instrumental, "Hit and Miss", performed by The John Barry Seven Plus Four, which remained the title music from 1960-1967. For the last few months of the original series this was replaced by a version recorded by The Ted Heath Band.

The 1989/1990 Jools Holland series also featured "Hit and Miss", this time recorded by Courtney Pine.

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or music:

    “And God-appointed Berkeley that proved all things a dream,
    That this pragmatical, preposterous pig of a world, its farrow that so solid seem,
    Must vanish on the instant if the mind but change its theme ...”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I used to be angry all the time and I’d sit there weaving my anger. Now I’m not angry. I sit there hearing the sounds outside, the sounds in the room, the sounds of the treadles and heddles—a music of my own making.”
    —Bhakti Ziek (b. c. 1946)
