For someone that grew up watching re-runs of 1950s, 1960s and 1970s situation comedies, westerns and cop shows, this audio CD is fun to listen to. Nowadays, theme songs seem to be a dying breed, with more and more television shows abandoning an opening and instead opting for nothing …

Songs with a slower pace than most rock songs are ones that I typically enjoy, usually because these songs tend to be more creative on average. When a song moves slowly, it almost forces the songwriters to work a little harder at making the song interesting, as they do …
