| Different songs that start the same by Commander Tansin A. Darcos 07/06/2014, 1:19am PDT | ||||

| When the TV game show "Name That Tune," in which you had to idfentify a song based on a playing of a small number of notes and the hints given, the host would note to be careful on the number of notes you bid that you needed to identify the song, because many songs start with the same 3 notes.
And I just noticed something about a song I hadn't heard in a long time, "The Theme From Peter Gunn," the 1960s TV show, opens with what sounds like the exact same drum sequence that The Clash, decades later, used in their song "Train in Vain (Stand by Me)." I then disvovered it's not the Peter Gunn theme that has this, it's the Blues Brothers' cover that has it. When Mancini himself plays it, the drum part isn't there and it goes straight in to the main theme. Try listening to the first 5 seconds of all three. (Steve Allen's intro takes about 30 seconds ahead of the song.) The Blues Brothers' Version Henry Mancini on Steve Allen's program The Clash, "Stand by me." |
