GAA: The Sunday Game's old theme music

[boysingreen]

We all remember the theme well, the trumpets blareing at the start of the Sunday Game. Why they changed it I'll never know. Anyhow, my i-pod won't be complete til I get a hold of it. It's bound to be available somewhere. Anyone ever come across it through any p2p service or website?

Thanks in advance, I hope!

I remember that it was a piece played by James Last and his Orchestra, so try looking for stuff by him......

Last’s ‘Jagariarten’ composition, picked up from Israeli television in 1979...

Also, there is a forum at jameslast.com but it's in German, you might get lucky there.

thanks Metrostars. I looked up the guy on Yahoo, ran through the track lists of a few of his CD's. No luck finding Jagariarten, yet. The good news is he seems to have a rediculous amount of CD's, it's bound to be on one of them. Gonna look through some more later. If anyone stumbles across a CD w/ it on it, feel free to help us out.

My dad works on that show. It's a song by James Last, first played in 1979. Not sure of the exact song title but there's a forum on his site that might be able to help you.
