George Martin - Theme One - Original (Electronic variation)


Playing Next: A Boy Named Sue: Johnny Cash
Random Page  /  Random Song


This is the original electronic version of Theme One, written and produced by George Martin as the theme tune to BBC Radio 1, it has since been covered by many other artists, most notably by Cozy Powell and Van Der Graaf Generator.

Before the advent of 24 hr. radio broadcasting this tune was used as the opening theme every morning at the start of broadcasting, it was also used as the theme tune to Radio1's \"Friday night is music night\" programme.

George Martin produced two very similar sounding variations of this track both used by the BBC.

This is the more electronic sounding version of the two, and was the version used for the first opening day of radio 1.
This was posted as a video response to the orchestral version which was the first version to be released on record.

For the orchestral version see my upload - \"George Martin - Theme One (Original Version)\"
