Not 'Fanfare for the Common Man' by Emerson Lake & Palmer? I remember that used to be used, but I don't know where you can find it... there'd be a preview on Amazon in any case...

For memory, it's production music from KPM - recorded sometime in the early 80s. The CD or album will be cheaper, but you are expected to pay AMCOS for public performances.

Best bet is to get one of those TV Theme compilations.

The original is by composer Aaron Copland. If I remember correctly, WWOS used the original, not ELP's version.

I remember reading that in the sleeve notes, yeah, I just assumed they used ELP's. Well that's interesting then cos I thought theirs was the more popular and would be the one that was used, cheers for that info
