Question: World in Action theme

Posted by: robw on 04 August 2003

I recently unearthed a casette I was given many years ago. There was never a track list given hence this post:

There is a track that I believe was used for the World in Action 1970's TV programme.

Does anyone know who it is by?

Cheers,

Rob

One of those type of progs used a Mountain tune I'm sure.

"Wasn't it Mountain's Nantucket Sleighride?"

No - that was "Weekend world" on ITV a sunday lunchtime

Thanks for looking but this isn't the one. Maybe the programme was Weekend World after all.

I'll look out for Mountain's Nantucket Sleighride.

The tape quality is pretty poor now but part of the lyrics at the beginning go something like, "...don't try following me, don't cry blue Marie, 'cause you know I'm coming over soon..."

Hope that helps!

Many thanks,

Robert

I bought a Mountain Best of CD on spec today and the track is indeed Nantucket Sleighride.

Thanks to everyone for their input on this.

Cheers,

Rob
